We’re revisiting a past podcast: Rewilding: People & Participation. It explores rewilding from a social perspective. Many of the challenges facing nature are rooted in human activity & how we prioritise land use. So solutions like rewilding must put people at the centre. https://www.buzzsprout.com/2135393/episodes/1446737520 Mar 2026 11:20 +0000at://did:plc:imp6acyf453qkrqo2iln5uuv/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhifk5hoz222https://bsky.app/profile/naturerecovery.bsky.social/post/3mhiebcxipc22🌱Happy #WorldRewildingDay!
