Paul Jepson: Understanding rewilding
Listen now
Description
You may or may not know that we are now in the middle of  United Nations decade on Ecosystem restoration to revive the worlds damaged ecosystems. However, I’m pretty sure you will have heard about ‘rewilding’.   But what is rewilding exactly? Is it no mow May? Is it letting a corner of the garden get a little out of hand? Or, perhaps is it bigger than that, the reintroduction of beaver or bison for example? Or Leonardo DiCaprio’s thought that Scotland should become the first rewilding nation? Standby to nerd out a bit and for a few surprises.  Our guest today Paul Jepson is not only a conservationist and writer but also a rewilding expert.
