Today we look back at some of our popular Earth Matters episodes for Year 2017. We revisit President Trump’s decision to pull U.S. out from the Paris agreement with Dato' Dr Gurdial Singh Nijar, the Taman Tun residents’ battle with DBKL to protect Taman Rimba Kiara from development with Hafiz Abu Bakar and Leon Koay, and the shift away from our current reliance on fossil fuels with Richard Heinberg.
