If you're in the UK, it's not secret that spring has sprung with some unusually hot & dry weather. Whilst we often blame this on the climate crisis, do we actually know what's causing it? Well, luckily Nadia wondered this & found the news explaining it. Ryan then shares some news about river blockages throughout Europe & how their numbers are, every so slightly, dwindling.

Look, we all want to head towards green energy.....right? But are we too quick to say yes before we've looked at the impact of producing it?
