ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Conservation, messaging, and the power of social movements to drive change with Charlie Gardner

How critical is it to recognise the interconnectedness of climate change and biodiversity loss? How does our economic system struggle to identify the true value of nature? And how can we shift the narrative to improve messaging around conservation, normalizing climate conversations, and harnessing the power of social contagion to drive collective action? These questions and more are explored in today's episode with Charlie Gardner, conservation scientist, writer, and activist from the UK.


He spent a decade in Madagascar and completed a PhD on management of the country's protected areas, and has since shifted his career to refocus more on climate change. He researches the implications of climate change for conservation approaches and is a member of the scientists for Extinction Rebellion.
