All Creatures Podcast – Julia Migné

This week we tackle the topic of “Conservation Optimism.” With all the doom and gloom out there, sometimes it tough to find the positive. Just remember there are many thousands, like Julia Migné, who are out there fighting hard for wildlife. There is much to be optimistic about and we spend an hour discussing this issue and many more.

The Conservation Careers Podcast – Cheli Sinclair

When you think about wildlife and conservation efforts, do you feel overwhelmed by the challenges we face? Saddened by the state of the planet and the rate of biodiversity losses? Upset by the volumes of plastic in our oceans, that slaughter of migratory birds over Malta? Or the clearing of our rainforest for palm oil?
Or, do you feel hopeful? Do you feel we can still turn it all around, that conservationists know what needs to be done and that nature can bounce back quickly?

In these podcasts and on our website, we ask some of the most senior conservationists on the planet, what do we need to do more of to tackle biodiversity collapses? The vast majority of them see the challenge as one of communicating our messages more effectively. To attract new support, raise our profile, turn interest into action. But how do we do this?
