Climate change message should not be doom and gloom, says Tony Robinson
Sir Tony Robinson, star of Blackadder and veteran presenter of Time Team, has told Sky News he wants the message of climate change to be less about doom and gloom and more hopeful. "I've been frustrated for quite some time about the way we talk about climate change," he said. Sir Tony, who has made several documentaries about climate change, was speaking to mark the launch of video game Floodland, a survival title set after a climate-induced apocalypse.
