Home Planet is chaired by Richard Daniel and is produced by the team behind Making History. The series gives Radio 4 listener's the opportunity to contribute to the growing discussion about the state of our world - are there big issues to be tackled or is everything fine as it is?
Is paper from managed forests as sustainable as recycled paper?
Why do we always seem to get ferocious storms in October?
I'm interested in a 'green' investment portfolio; can I help the planet and still make money?
Should I strip the paper of our tin cans before I recycle them?
Will a switch to hydrogen combat global warming?
These are just some of the questions that have been sent in to the programme over the past months and our team are ready to field many more over the next 13 weeks.
This week's guests:
Ros Taylor Principal Lecturer in Geography and Environmental Science, Kingston University
Emeritus Professor Philip Stott of the University of London
Derek Moore OBE, Chief Executive of the Wildlife Trusts of South & West Wales
This week's questions:
Christmas Lights
My work takes me around the UK and I've never seen so many Christmas lights outside people's houses as I have done this year. I'm no Scrooge, but is this just more commercialisation of a traditional holiday which does nothing to reduce our use of energy?
Oil Spills at sea
After the sinking of the Prestige, I was struck by the number of scientists interviewed on radio and television who gave the opinion that nature can cope with these man-made disasters - are they all in the pay of the petrol-chemical industry or this really the case?
Home Planet interviewed Dr Martin Angel of the Southampton Oceanography Centre
Spanish Hydrological Plan
What are the environmental consequences of transferring water from the River Ebro in northern Spain to Murcia in the south east of the country?
Home Planet interviewed Carlos Garcia from the Regional Government in Murcia
Christmas Trees
Does growing thousands and thousands of Christmas trees have a detrimental impact on the environment?
Home Planet interviewed Roger Hay, Secretary of the British Christmas Tree Growers Association.
