Matt Winning: Solastalgia

THE SHOW Acclaimed climate scientist, Dr Matt Winning (LLB, MSc, PhD), has been given an ultimatum: save the world by lunchtime tomorrow or sell his soul for a slice of Rockefeller's fortune. But right now, he's busy: his son is being born and he's desperate for a piss.

From karaoke with a bunch of bankers to petrol station bathrooms and the United Nations, Solastalgia, is an epic story about fatherhood, finance and facing the future, together.
