Video The Money Programme: The Beauty Backlash and The Real Cost of Going Green - XB006/DVD03
XB006/DVD03 Two episodes from the popular BBC2 programme.

The Beauty Backlash
As cosmetics company Dove launches a campaign to convince young women not to be taken in by a myth of unattainable beauty, we investigate the backlash amongst consumers against some of the idealised images of beauty as seen in magazines and on TV. But where does that leave an industry which trades so heavily on encouraging women to aspire to unattainable ideals?

The Real Cost of Going Green
As part of the BBC's Climate Change Week, the Money Programme challenges a family from the UK’s highest carbon-generating area to live within their carbon allowance for the future. Can they change their lifestyle enough to use 20% less carbon a week?
