The natural world, and humanity's fraught relationship with it, slips into focus in this event. Philip Marsden's Under a Metal Sky investigates the history of humanity's extraction of minerals, from the Bronze Age and the Industrial Revolution to the present day. Meanwhile, environmental historian Vanessa Taylor's Seven Rivers delves into the histories, cultures, and ecosystems surrounding seven of the world's great rivers, asking what the future holds for them. Join their urgent discussion with Jo Sharp.
