Description
AL Kennedy ponders why we're bad at assessing risks.
"We prioritize them according to emotion and information," she says, "but our emotions cloud our judgement and our information may be patchy, absent or misleading."
She argues that one risk though is incontrovertible - the risk to the planet - and we need to find a way to ensure its survival.
Producer: Adele Armstrong
