EP 372 - Our guest, Ben Askins, is pretty convincing when he says that being green is one of, if not THE biggest commercial opportunity of the century. Ben is a serial entrepreneur, now scaling Green-Tech start-up Gaia, so he knows his onions.

Our chat gets stuck into culture wars, and culture warriors, and why we need to get our heads out of short term political point scoring and into the long game. Us, the media, everybody.

He also makes a very good point that you can’t make being a politician a thankless job, with terrible pay and still expect the best and brightest to apply to run the country.
