Stop Saving the Planet?
Does "Every Little Thing" REALLY Stop Climate Change?
Season 1
Episode 2
Recycling, planting trees, and going vegan are just a handful of ways to reduce our carbon footprint. But small individual tasks have little impact when compared to the vast polluting systems that underpin modern society. Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant explores how making individuals responsible for "saving the planet" can be counterproductive to fighting climate change. Based on the book by Jenny Price.
