118: Can technology save the planet?

Charity Digital Podcast

Tech has always played a paradoxical role in the history of climate change: as both problem and solution. Tech is one of the main drivers of greenhouse gas emissions and pushes us further into the climate crisis. Tech also helps us to limit our emissions and deal with the various impacts of the climate crisis.
The choice rests on humans and our collective choices. We need to ensure that, now and in the future, we use the right tech in the right way, reject catch-all and one-stop solutions, and consider how tech can inform meaningful climate action.
In our latest podcast, we touch on solutionism, behavioural change, the importance of green tech, and so much more. Join our host, Lisa Chomette, and our content writers, Josie Sparling, Laura Stanley, and Ioan Marc Jones, to discuss whether technology can save the planet.
