What makes an eco-home?
We hear what makes an eco-home, and find out why properties miss the energy saving mark.
We hear what makes an eco-home, and find out why properties miss the energy saving mark. Seth Rutt is an architect with Hawkins Brown who explains how old homes can be made more energy efficient. Professor Arik Levinson of Georgetown University discusses energy-saving features that fail to live up to architectural and regulatory ambitions. And the climate campaigner George Monbiot tells us how expensive it can be to retrofit energy saving measures in older properties. Also in the programme, two deadly 737 Max 8 crashes killed a total of 346 people and Boeing's CEO, Dennis Muilenburg admitted the firm had made "mistakes". As his company is accused of putting profit before safety, we hear from relatives of the crash victims and also the 成人快手's Vivienne Nunis.
Plus, Nigel Newton, chief executive of publisher Bloomsbury, on how the US-China trade war is impacting profits at the company.
