In November last year, the economist John Fingleton published his recommendations for a “radical reset” for the nuclear sector, which included  changes to the Habitats Regulations.


In just three months’ time, the government will present its plan for how to  implement Fingleton’s controversial recommendations across the whole Industrial Strategy. But some of the report’s evidence base has been called into question by NGOs, including the Wildlife Trust. 


On this week’s ECO Chamber, special guest Matthew Browne, head of public affairs at the charity joins host James Agyepong-Parsons and ENDS Report news editor Pippa Neill to discuss why he believes errors related to environmental case studies in the report could have serious implications for nature. 


Plus, we bring you news of the sixth mass extinction event you may already be living through. 


The ECO Chamber is brought to you by journalists at ENDS Report.
