More or Less: Net Zero and HS2
I've been listening to More or Less on Radio 4 for a long time and have learned a great deal from it about how to understand and interrogate statistics and data in the media.
Each episode always covers several topics and two of those featured in the 27 September 2023 broadcast were especially relevant. Was Rishi Sunak right to claim that the UK is ahead of other countries in terms of cutting carbon emissions? We know HS2 is hugely late and over budget but is it worse than other big infrastructure projects? The programme talks to experts to get the full picture.
