Wildlife groups pledge to continue their efforts to reduce the impact of HS2 on the environment, despite it getting the go-ahead. Refugees at Za'atari camp in Jordan have joined up with a team of scientists from Sheffield to grow fresh food in old mattress foam. This week the Foundation is running its annual Mind Your Head campaign, calling on the farming community to look after their mental health. At Cranfield University researchers are working on ways to prolong potato dormancy. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
