Did I hear correctly from Richard Daniel in this week's Home Planet on BBC Radio 4 that the programme is to end shortly?

Time to let Radio 4 Controller Gwyneth Williams what I think of this decision methinks.

I have to admit I haven't listened to it for a couple of years. I got tired of Philip Stott's contrarianism with regards to climate change. Perhaps he's changed his tune a bit now, but I heard him go from 'it's not us' to 'there's nothing we can do about it'. Definitely in the Bjorn Lomberg camp!
