General Election 2015. Get Ready! Get Reading!

From austerity to Europe, education to equality, there are many national and international issues on the agenda this election. We asked environmental economist Dieter Helm, author of Natural Capital: Valuing the Planet, to introduce one key election theme, the environment, in this short video.
