DISPATCHES: THE GREAT GREEN SMOKE SCREEN
In the week Live Earth parties for the planet, Dispatches reveals how attempts to buy our way out of climate crisis may be making things worse.
Channel 4 News science correspondent Tom Clarke dissects the many ’solutions’ to global warming being marketed to consumers, from tree-planting and carbon offsetting to green energy tariffs. Jetting off on holidays and mini-breaks, we’re increasingly turning to offsetting to alleviate our environmental guilt. But what are offsets? And are they really the answer in the fight against global warming?

Looking to watch the programme, “the great green smoke screen”, which i hoped would be a follow up on the excellent “the great global warming swindle”. Sadly on the advertised day this was shown, we were treated to some wonderful propaganda about Tony Blair. Is there another date for your programme to be shown again???
