Are there reasons to be cheerful about climate change? What are the most data-driven changes we can make to really move the dial on carbon emissions?

Matt speaks with Hannah about how the data she sees and collates tells a surprisingly optimistic story - and how numbers can be a powerful tool to hold governments and policy-makers to account. https://ourworldindata.org/
