Description: Does this decision compromise the ability of future generations to meet their own needs?   This is the overarching question guiding Sophie Howe's work. As the world's first Commissioner for Future Generations in her home country of Wales, she enforces a legally-binding plan for national and local government to improve the well-being of Welsh citizens and think long-term.   She joins co-host Kelsey Warner this week to talk about how government can implement such a strategy and what it means for the economy. She talks about projects that have addressed an epidemic of loneliness, how to put teeth into enforcement and how a highway plan was replaced with something else - and why.   Hosted by Mustafa Alrawi and Kelsey Warner Produced by Arthur Eddyson and Ayesha Khan   In this episode:
