Guest: Prof. Chandran Kukathas, Dean of the School of Social Sciences, Singapore Management University
This week UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced delays to some of the critical climate change targets that the government had set, including pushing the ban of petrol and diesel cars to 2035 - this has been pushed back to 2035.

We discuss the fall out with Prof. Chandran Kukathas of the Singapore Management University.
