How can Ireland help turn the tide against climate change? Prof. Shane Bergin learns the difference between climate and weather, how to reap the benefits of wind and wave energy in Ireland, and how we can reduce our reliance on fossil fuels through the use of biogas. Shane poses the question to researchers; should scientists get involved in the political debate around climate change, or is the research their only responsibility?

Voices in this episode include Prof. Peter Lynch, Prof. Conor Sweeney, Prof. Mike Hartnett, Prof. Paul Leahy and Prof. Jerry Murphy.
