In this episode of our podcast we're trying something new - James hosts a round-table discussion with solutions adviser Nathan, coal campaigner Emma and new web editor Christian about what Greenpeace stands for, and (in the run up to the UN Climate Change conference in Copenhagen this December) whether we're going the right way about tackling the greatest challenge we've ever faced - minimising the effects of climate change.

Are we spending too much time lobbying national politicians directly, and not taking enough action at a local level? Do we talk too much about problems and not enough about the solutions?

The aim is to give you a bit more insight into the sort of discussions that go on between campaigners when they're planning a campaign, the various tools and techniques at our disposal, and the ways in which they can be combined to address the massive environmental threats we all face.

Bass player and backing vox in the four piece beat combo that is the UK Greenpeace Web Experience. In my 6 years here I've worked on almost every campaign and been fascinated by them all to varying degrees. Just now I'm working on Peace and Oceans - which means getting rid of our Trident nuclear weapons system and creating large marine reserves so that marine life can get some protection from overfishing.
