In the neighbourhood of Whitby in Cheshire, residents had to grapple with a question that many more of us will have to ask in the coming years: how should we heat our homes if we’re no longer allowed gas boilers? What started as a proposal to test hydrogen heating soon escalated into an explosive argument. As government policies aimed at reaching net zero start to affect our daily lives, is it a sign of the squabbles to come? Guests: - Ben Cooke, Times Earth editor. - Kate Grannell, campaigner. Host: Luke Jones. Clips: Cheshire West and Chester Council, Sky News, The Economist, TED. This podcast has been acquired by the BBC.
