In this week’s Sustainable Hour, we look beneath the familiar stories of climate change and extinction to something deeper: the stories that determine what we value, what we protect and what we allow to disappear.

For more than a decade, I have spent much of my working life writing and talking about the climate crisis. Each week, through radio, podcasts, articles and public events, I have spoken with climate scientists, environmental campaigners, farmers, psychologists, politicians, business leaders and ordinary citizens trying to make sense of what is happening to our world. Then I wrote a book about masculinity. At first glance, that may seem like a departure from climate journalism.
