Nerds welcome to Week 31 of your nature news fix & after a beautiful little story about a hair snail, we move on to something harder to handle.

Okay, after protests from indigenous communities, many debates & talks & constant news reporting, COP30 is finished & Nadia & Ryan do their best to give you an update on the event & agreements.

Nerds, let's start by saying yes, Ryan & Nadia's nature highlights are becoming a bit desperate so why not get in touch on email (intothewildpod@gmail.com) or DM on Instagram (link below) so we can share YOUR nature highlight from the week!

Onto Week 30 of Nature News, we start with a new way to deter those herring gulls from your chips & move on to an in-depth discussion about Labour's plan to build a lot of new homes but without looking after nature. Finishing with a new report on an ocean bacteria that can digest PET plastic!

Nerds Nature News is on hold this week while we step in to release a "round the table" chat recorded live at Global Birdfair back in July of this year.

Nadia & Ryan were joined by conservationists Ajay Tegala & Ezz Miles to talk about the art (yes, we are using the word art) of communicating conservation in 2025. From how it's changed to what needs to change.
