Hunting as a conservation tool can be a divisive topic. How can the death of an animal increase the health of the herd?

This week we sit down with Ivan Carter, a safari guide, conservationist, and TV host to answer these big questions. He encourages us to set our emotions aside and listen to the science when it comes to making conservation decisions!

We're so grateful to have had the opportunity to record this episode with Ivan at EarthX 2024 in Dallas Texas!

Thanks to our listeners who pointed out that we uploaded the wrong file this week! The problem is now fixed.

Protecting the ocean can seem like a whale of a task! Luckily we have the solutions to turn the tides.

We sat down with George Cummings at EarthX to learn about his work as an ocean ambassador. From the UN Sustainable Development Goals, to protecting island nations, and learning how we can help reduce carbon entering our atmosphere, we cover it all!

Wind turbines are an incredible source of renewable, carbon-neutral energy that can be deadly to bats. This week we talk to a scientist who's trying to fix that.

We sit down at EarthX with Dr. Sarah Fritts, an associate professor of wildlife ecology at Texas State University, to learn how she's working to keep bats away from critical renewable energy infrastructure.
