In this episode, I speak with Kerry McCrory, who lives in Coneyglen in the heart of the Sperrins. Through her holistic practice, Kerry helps people reconnect with balance, colour, and the deeper rhythms of nature — but over the years, her care for human well-being has become inseparable from her care for the land itself - through her  opposition to the gold mine  to challenging the spread of industrial wind farms.Kerry  speaks movingly  about the sacred relationship between people and place.This

How might emergent strategies of group dynamics in nature inform our own technology and design? In this episode, Dr. Iain Couzin, Director of the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior and one of the world’s leading researchers on collective motion in animals, explores how nature’s systems -- from swarming locusts and murmurations of starlings to schooling fish -- coordinate complex group behaviors without centralized control, and what these patterns can teach us about designing human system...

In this week's episode, we'll be talking about giants of the past and present. Is it possible that some people were 450 feet tall in the days of Noah. Did our military have an encounter with a giant in Afghanistan - only to deny it later? Is the Smithsonian Institute hiding evidence of such giants?

Roseate Spoonbills are a Florida bird to us easterners, but most of their range is in South America.

As a nature lover, I’m often asked about my favorite plants, animals, and insects. And I always struggle to answer those questions, because I have so many favorites, and they are context dependent. But when it comes to birds, woodpeckers often come to mind first. They’re often colorful, charismatic, and have such an amazing set of adaptations that let them drill into trees, excavate insects from bark, and some even fly catch on the wing. One of the most interesting woodpecker spec...

Autumn’s here, and so is a new wave of forest innovation. We kick off with an update on the EUDR delay drama - nothing’s been voted on yet, but small companies might get more time while the rest are still expected to comply. What happens next?Then we go orbital: ESA’s Biomass satellite sends its first forest maps, and we revisit SMOS a 15-year-old satellite unexpectedly helping us estimate biomass from space. Promising tech, but still far from everyday forest tools.Also in this episode:Super wood

Recorded on October 23, 2025, at the dogtrot, this is the sound of a breezy autumn day in the pasture.The wind rustles through the leaves of a giant Southern Red Oak in a mast year, scattering acorns below as the bright, musical trills of Allard’s Ground Crickets rise through the air. Listeners will also hear the calls of Blue Jays, American Crows, a Northern Flicker and a Red-shouldered Hawk riding the thermals above Heart Place. This recording is best enjoyed in a quiet setting.

This week I’m chatting with environmental lawyer Abigail Dillen, president of Earthjustice, a nonprofit law firm whose tagline is “because the Earth needs a good lawyer.” Indeed, it does.The stakes, in her words: “We could come out of this time with neither presidential authority nor congressional authority to create, and enforce strong environmental laws.”Oof. But we are not quitters, right team? So, from from the Supreme Court, to suing the government, to Project Phoenix, to her spicy take on the

“Many people find these ideologies to be so risible and silly that they wonder why anyone would spend time talking about them. And… the best response I have is that the reason we should talk about these and take… precious time out of our day to understand them, is precisely because there are billions and billions of dollars backing this movement.”In this episode, host Mollie Holmberg (she/her) talks with Dr. Émile Torres about the pro-extinctionist TESCREAL worldviews driving the race to build
