Can we stop the insects from dying?

Beyond Today

Available for over a year

This week we heard that we are in the middle of a biodiversity crisis, but are we in a position to save the bugs, and ourselves, from extinction? We hear from biologist Adam Hart and go back to the grandma of environmentalism, Rachel Carson, to find out why we need bugs to survive and what we can do to save them. Thanks to Audible and Recorded Books for allowing us to play Silent Spring. Mixed by Nicolas Raufast Producers: Lucy Hancock and Philly Beaumont Editor: John Shields
