Creation of the Charter for the Rights of Nature (can’t remember exact name), which Spain, New Zealand and several states of the USA have already incorporated into their constitutions, is brilliant.
The Agrivoltaics project in the USA was my second fav - growing crops beneath solar panels grows them faster, with less water, whilst creating energy to feed into grids. But all the projects were amazing. |  |

I don't want to be a downer and I've searched for the vid link but can't find it.
The countries that straddle the equator are drying up.
The ground is losing all it's ground water - the water that lies beneath.
These lands are going to become permanent deserts.
The people who live there are going to move and countries like us have to help even though the politics is dead against it. |  |

The Earthshot Prize was set up precisely to try and find ways of preventing your points 2-5 happening; and from what I’ve seen so far, is making a damn good fist of it.
Re your first point on getting the clips - I found I had to update my iPlayer app with most recent before it would work, but here are the links again -

Thanks - I will watch them.
With Trump and his rich buddies taking over America I feel that Climate change has been fitted with a turbo. | |

Not wrong re T.rump, but the thousands of visitors to the Agrivoltaics project in the USA shows that brilliant ideas can still influence even former rednecks there - “it’s the economy (ic boosts) stupid”. | |
