Lack of tourism could cost $4tn - a podcast by BBC World Service

The UN has warned the pandemic's impact on the tourism industry could cost up to $4tn. We get the perspective of Simon Pestridge of Desa Potato Head, which runs a hotel and beach club in Bali, and further analysis from Zoritsa Urosevic of the UN's World Tourism Organisation. Also in the programme, the BBC's Deborah Weitzmann reports on the environmental impact of washing clothes, and finds out how to keep it to a minimum. Plus, a prototype flying car, called AirCar, has completed a 35-minute flight between two airports in Slovakia. Anton Zajac is co-founder of Klein Vision, which is behind the venture, and tells us more about the project.
