Starting today: Freeview channel dedicated to green programming

 A venture by a US-based non-profit organisation which seems to have started as a streaming service, there are doubts whether EarthX TV will be viable in the UK. There is increasing programming of green issues by the mainstream broadcasters here and one wonders whether the market is already saturated. Those who are receptive to the global warming message have already been converted, surely, and the hard-core deniers are not going to be persuaded to switch to a channel dedicated to green issues. At best, it will be a channel which virtuous watchers will dip into if there is a good enough documentary on it.

The Ofcom registration is here.
