Forbidden fruit, DEFRA’s growing pains, and the true cost of offshore wind

Eco Chamber

Every week, the ENDS team enters the ECO Chamber to discuss the UK’s biggest green news stories, and take a forensic look at one of the deep-rooted environmental issues facing us today.

In this week’s episode, the team unearths:

• The gardens of England where food grows with toxic PFAS pollution.
• The environment secretary's plan for growth, growth, growth at DEFRA.
• And the news-in-brief: Missed biodiversity targets, rotten ammonia protocols and landfill permit breaches.

For this week’s fact-check, we look into the truth behind the claim made by Robert Jenrick – the front-runner for the Conservative party leadership – that offshore wind is the driver pushing energy prices up, up and away.
