| 4/25/26 |  What really went down at the Supreme Court: the “Finch ruling” | The “Finch ruling” case started small – with £20 donations from people that cared – but the eventual wins were big. What’s less well known, is the legal rollercoaster Sarah Finch and the Weald Action Group faced. After a failed High Court case and a failed Court of Appeal case, Sarah faced a major crossroads: keep going or call it a day? Sarah joins Climate Curious’s Ben Hurst to share why she took the risky last ditch attempt to gain justice for Horse Hill in Surrey, and describes what it felt like to stand in the Supreme Court, not knowing if years of effort were about to unravel.Enjoyed this short episode?

Enter climate winner – Sarah Finch of the legendary UK “Finch ruling”. From Surrey oil well to the Supreme Court, Sarah Finch and the Weald Action Group took the government to task – forcing it to rewrite how it assesses the environmental impact of new oil and gas projects, forever! And now she’s sharing the story. Sarah Finch of the “Finch ruling” herself joins Climate Curious’s Ben Hurst to share how a grassroots campaign grew into one of the most consequential climate legal victories in recent UK history.

| 4/9/26 |  Why nature isn’t “other” it’s “mother”, with Paul Hawken | We’ve all heard the language: “fight,” “tackle,” “combat” the climate crisis, right?

| 2/20/26 |  Climate OG on how to stay optimistic in a “down cycle” | “We should be as optimistic as they [Big Oil] are,” says economist, diplomat, key architect of the Paris Agreement, and climate heavy-hitter Laurence Tubiana. Having spent decades navigating the political domain of global climate policy, in this Climate Curious short she dives into why the current “down cycle” of climate action is reflective of fear in the fossil fuel industry and should be viewed with optimism; as well as how the secret to resilience is in listening to the people around you. Finally Laurence shares how the “golden moment” for fossil fuels is coming to an end, and how we can reclaim control over our own future.

| 2/13/26 |  What Big Oil doesn’t want you to know about plastic, with journalist Beth Gardiner | From WWII radars to Tupperware, LEGO, and even heart transplants, plastic permeates every facet of our lives. But how much of this was Big Oil's "Plan B” strategy to triple production and keep profits high? Climate Curious gets the scoop on big plastic's secret and shocking history from environmental journalist and TEDxLondon speaker Beth Gardiner. As Beth tells us, "it's actually enraging rather than depressing" when you learn to see through the lies that CEOs have sold us – around individual blame and beach litter cleanups – versus the real solution: corporates cleaning up their own mess.
