Natural gas is abundant, versatile – and much cleaner than coal. It lets us keep the lights on AND reduce emissions. That's great, right? Well, yes. If it wasn't for one small detail: it's still a fossil fuel.

We're destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn't need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we'll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess.
