Alex Scott, E3G

Solitaire Townsend, Chief Solutionist at Futerra

Leo Hickman, editor of Carbon Brief

Jake Dubbins, MD of Media Bounty

Pamela Stathaki, Dentsu

Matt Winning, environmental economist and stand-up comic

and Alastair Campbell

we also caught up with

* Paul Bains, supply lead at The Felix Project

* Paul Gosling - director of Sustainability & Environment at Hays Recruitment, who mentioned his Sustainable Futures - Career Conversations pod

* Julie from the Woodland Trust, who hooked us up with a very cool VR tour of woodlands

* Faye from the Community Massage Project (communitymassageproject.co.uk). If you’re hearing this on your way to Day Two of the Net Zero Festival do go check them out.

We also caught the moment when an Extinction Rebellion protestor crashed one of the panel discussions and was calmly and respectfully handled by James Murray. You can have a look at the whole exchange:
