Show Notes
In this episode, we travel to the Ahr Valley in Germany, where, in summer 2021, viewers across the world watched in horror as unprecedented flood waters swept through the region. But what happens after the TV cameras leave and residents are left to pick up the pieces? Do they go on relying on climate-destroying fossil fuels that helped to cause the disaster? Or do they dare to dream of something different? Hear from Julia, Sandra, and Stefan as they introduce their work to turn the Ahr Valley into the ‘Sol-Ahr’ valley—ditching dirty fossil fuels to rebuild a cleaner future.
