What leaders must learn about connecting risks. From the pandemic to the climate emergency, social media and the misuse of technology, the threats are increasing year on year. Astronomer Royal Lord Martin Rees reveals his greatest fears to TtU’s Nik Gowing and Chris Langdon.
“Prisoner of hope and stubborn optimist” Halla Tomasdottir talks unthinkables with TTU’s Nik Gowing.
