Tune in to the new monthly Geographical podcast with Laura Cole
This is On The Ground, a new podcast from Geographical, written and hosted by Laura Cole. In this series, Laura will be getting out from behind her desk and on the ground, reporting from across the UK’s landscape – and speaking to the people changing it.
Coming up, we’ve got investigations into corporate wrongdoing, rural town halls holding the government to account, the human faces behind scientific breakthroughs, and even some true crime episodes.
But first, we investigate the story of a local planning battle over a UK airport owned by a group of Canadian teachers. It’s a story that reveals a country-wide problem we’re struggling to resolve: Who is counting the UK’s aviation emissions, and who is keeping track of a growing wave of expansions across UK airports?
