Every passing day brings a new Climate Change story on TV. “It's worse than we thought” says a bunch of scientists. “Relax, the market will sort it out” says someone else. Meanwhile, new government and business initiatives spring up all the time, encouraging us to recycle, and offset or trade our carbon emissions. Who can you believe?

"How You Can Just Change". Just Change aims to link producer and consumer communities across the globe in order that they can trade directly with each other, without the need for middlemen such as large supermarket chains. The system does work, as proved by the residents of the Marsh Farm estate who are sourcing tea directly from Indian tribal groups (Adivasis) and selling it on in their local shop. Their success was recently reported in the Guardian in September, and we're hoping to establish similar links in the North West . Start: 2:00 pm
