Ten Fights That Made the Green Movement: Omnibus 2

The modern green movement has been shaped not only by protest, but by conflict about big ideas, within the ranks.

The modern green movement has been shaped not only by protest, but by conflict within the ranks. In the second omnibus episode of this series, Justin Rowlatt meets the people at the heart of these battles. Friends, or sometimes enemies, hashing out big ideas that help define what it means to be green.

From environmental activists seized by Russian forces in the Arctic, to the eviction of an indigenous community from a Ugandan forest for gorilla conservation. From greens in Germany clashing over the shutdown of nuclear power plants, to Just Stop Oil and the crackdown on disruptive protest in the UK.

And in a moment of climate fatigue and denial, two visions of what's next for the modern green movement.
