On Tech: Elon Musk and Mark Boyle

Is Technology the solution or the problem?

Featuring Mark Boyle and Elon Musk. In this first episode of Who Cares Wins with Lily Cole, Lily presents two opposing philosophical perspectives on environmentalism, in particular examining technology's role in our future. Lily welcomes her friend, and prophet of the tech free narrative, Mark Boyle who has given up all forms of technology in his modern life since 2015.

On the other end of the spectrum, and on the other side of the world, Lily speaks with founder of SpaceX and Tesla - Elon Musk - about space travel, energy generation and why Elon has dedicated his life’s work to green technology. There's something to learn from both viewpoints, as Lily explores how we might find our way to sustainability and happiness.

You can find out more about Mark Boyle and Elon Musk in Lily's book, Who Cares Wins, which is out now in hardback, ebook and audiobook.
