Oliver Hides takes your calls on wind farms, the way older people are portrayed in the media, and carnivals

Is it time that we all get behind green energy? What do you make of the way older people are portrayed in the media? And are our summer carnivals worth saving?

As leading climate scientists warn that the world is drawing closer to breaching targets for limiting global warming, the UK government has announced plans for a huge wind farm off the coast of Pembrokeshire. So in the face of a potential climate crisis, is it time that we all get behind green energy?

What do you make of the way older people are portrayed in the media? When it comes to adverts, too many brands are behind the times.
That鈥檚 according to a report by the Advertising Standard Authority. Many older people feel that a lot of advertising reduces them to outdated stereotypes.

And have you ever appeared on a carnival float? The future of the Notting Hill Carnival could be in doubt. Are our summer carnivals worth saving? And what did you dress up as for your carnival appearance?
