  • Nature News - Week 19 - That Land is My Land & Nuclear Waste of Time?
    Jun 18 2025

    Listener Note:

    We got some very handy feedback that our audio had been on the quieter side recently so we did some investigating & made some adaptations......basically, it should be louder now so be careful on those ears!

    Land reform isn't a new topic for us to cover on Into The Wild but celebrating some good news on the theme is! Ryan shares a story from California about the Yurok tribe & Nadia gives us the low down & some thoughts about a nuclear power plant in the south of England.

I knew some of the issues discussed in this episode and knew I there was still so much to learn, but man oh man has George (who I've read before) opened my eyes to so, so much more.

Great interview which I could have continued to listen to for hours. I'll be buying George's latest book for sure and reading it when I'm at my mentally strongest 😳.

Well presented and I will be going back to listen to way more of this podcast.

Eye-opening, even for an Environmental Scientist
