What is the real cost of getting to net zero? The Compass has just finished a four-part series which examined the received wisdom of the move to green energy - revealing some inconvenient truths. A listener points out that by highlighting the problems, there is a danger of setting back the shift away from fossil fuels. We put this to the show’s producer. Plus, a listener asks if it is perhaps time to rethink a long-held approach to the news interview. Presenter: Rajan Datar Producer: Howard Shannon. A Whistledown production for the BBC World Service
