The Green Future | Caroline Lucas

About this episode

Zack Polanski interviews Caroline Lucas about women's experiences in politics and the need for sustainable growth in society.

How has the experience changed for women in politics over the last few decades? Why do we allow those in power to get away with telling the story that unlimited growth on a planet with finite resources won’t just end with inequality? Can we build a better, fairer and more equitable society by looking at the fundamentals of life, death and love from a different cultural perspective? Zack Polanski speaks to author, campaigner and the Green Party’s first ever MP, Caroline Lucas, live from Brighton Dome to an audience of 1600 people. Bold Politics Live is at Crossed Wires Festival in Sheffield on July 5th. Pre-order the new book, Hope Is Here now . Email: zack@boldpolitics.co.uk Hosted on Acast.
