Let’s be honest, no-one wants to talk about the end of the world. However, with the looming issues of climate change, plastic pollution, biodiversity loss, overfishing and an endless list of planetary challenges, mass global conservation efforts are at play. Julia Wheeler and Paul De Gelder chat with these game-changers who are striving to protect mother earth and tackle the stigma, rumours and gossip surrounding what conservation actually means, getting down to the dirt of an ever changing controversial circle from a humour driven, fact-checking, empowering and listener life-changing perspective.
