• Are we insured against future climate change damage?

  In the aftermath of the devastating floods that hit central Texas in July, Sustainable Views editor Philippa Nuttall spoke to acting deputy editor Elizabeth Meager about US climate policy and the insurance industry.As the federal government aggressively deregulates on climate, the costs of natural disasters are continuing to increase, and climate change is making them both more frequent and more extreme.While insurance companies are ostensibly on the frontline, both they and market analysts insist the industry is well insulated, for a number of reasons. What many view as an insurance crisis may actually be a broader societal, systemic crisis.Subscribe to the Sustainable Views podcast, available on all major podcast platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify and YouTube.

• Why is the food system so hard to reform?

  A summer of high temperatures and more extreme storms has laid bare some of the issues within our global food system. But why is it so hard to enact reforms to improve what we eat and how we make our food?Sustainable Views' Elizabeth Meager speaks with Florence Jones about what steps the UK government is taking after high temperatures and unpredictable weather exacerbated food prices, with staples like potatoes increasing 22 per cent between January and February 2024. Florence also looks back on Leon restaurant founder Henry Dimbleby's food strategy review in 2021 and what has changed since one of the more punchy reviews seen in Westminster in the past few years.Editor Philippa Nuttall explains how the EU is facing the impact of climate change on farming, with the recently passed EU budget giving some sense of the direction of travel. But it is not just in the fields that climate change is being felt. Increasing drought is making transport along the Rhine and other key routes more difficult and changing consumers habits is the area no legislator seems to want to broach.Subscribe to the Sustainable Views podcast, available on all major podcast platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify and YouTube.

• Is the UK following through on what it says about climate action?

  As London Climate Action Week begins, Sustainable Views’ Philippa Nuttall speaks with Elizabeth Meager and Florence Jones about whether the UK government is following through with its rhetoric around climate action.Four years ago at COP26 in Glasgow, then-prime minister Boris Johnson and his chancellor, Rishi Sunak, shouted loudly about the UK’s climate leadership and making the country the world’s first net zero financial centre but a series of other events meant priorities changed.In the recent spending review, chancellor Rachel Reeves agreed upon investment towards Britain’s energy transition, but the government’s other policies have raised fears about how green its policies really are.Subscribe to the Sustainable Views podcast, available on all major podcast platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify and YouTube.

• What has Donald Trump's first 100 days meant for sustainability?

  It's been 100 days since Donald Trump entered the White House for a second time — on an election ticket that promised the end of renewable energy subsidies and embracing "coal, beautiful coal". But how else has Trump and his administration approached sustainability policy? And is the backlash already under way?Sustainable Views editor Philippa Nuttall, acting deputy editor Elizabeth Meager and policy researcher Erin Donnelly discuss reporting on Trump's first 100 days and how Sustainable Views' Trump watch is following the changes in policy. Erin explains how the EPA has had a fundamental reframing under new chief Lee Zeldin, while Elizabeth explains how the fightback against some of the policies being put in place may come from state or international level.
