Is climate change ruining your relationship?

How can you have a successful relationship with someone if you
believe passionately in climate action, but they don’t? The fate
of our planet can be a divisive, emotive, even frightening issue.
It’s something that’s tearing more and more couples and families
apart, experts have told us.


It’s not easy getting past those differences with the ones we
love, but it is possible. We speak to a couple, as well as a
mother and daughter, to find out how. And we ask whether the way
we talk to our loved ones about climate change might offer
important lessons on how we discuss the issue more broadly.


Presenter Graihagh Jackson is joined by:


Daze and Antonia Aghaji, from London Caroline Hickman, researcher
at the University of Bath in the UK and psychotherapist Mohini
and Sam Pollock, from Campbell, California
