Switched - St Andrews

Happy birthday to our beloved team member Robert Cooper!

We here at switched recently watched this documentary about climate change and thought it was very fascinating and hard hitting.

If you want to learn more about this global issue, what its causes are, and potential solutions we really recommend you watch it!
