Welcome to another issue of URSA, Europe’s audio magazine!
In this first section you’ll hear the latest headlines out of Europe, including updates on the ongoing protests in France, Germany’s transportation strike, and a Berlin celebrity cameo in the latest John Wick film.
You’ll also hear climate updates, including news about a failed climate referendum, solar panels on Switzerland’s railway tracks, and how a breeding pair of rodents are being reintroduced to London for the first time in 400 years!
Once you’ve been updated on European climate and news, flip to the the next sections of URSA, to enjoy this month’s feature pieces, food updates from Will Maidment, the arts and culture section, plus an exciting local artist spotlight.
Our theme music is from
