Changemakers Asia
Changemakers: Asia is a three-part series that takes a look at some of the weird and wonderful projects emerging from Asia to combat climate change laced with a little humour. Yes, it is possible to make jokes about this subject and still take it seriously. With a bit of luck, itll remind us that perhaps things arent quite as black as theyre painted and that there are plenty of people willing to tackle the problems of global warming head on.
