“I could fly to New York and back every day for seven years and still not leave a carbon footprint as big as if I have a child. Ten thousand tonnes of CO2. That’s the weight of the Eiffel Tower. I’d be giving birth to the Eiffel Tower.”

A play about the different types of love we feel in a lifetime.
In (2013) LUNGS aired on BBC Radio 3.
