Beaver ReWilding: Gateway to Transformation - with Eva Bishop of the Beaver Trust

How can we begin to reverse the destruction of our countryside, the pollution of our rivers - and our disconnection from the Natural World?  Beavers, of course.  Eva Bishop of the Beaver Trust tells of the UK introduction of beavers and puts it in a whole-system context.  

The Beaver Trust is a small group of committed individuals who understand the deep interconnectedness of life.  By bringing beavers back to the UK where once they flourished, they are seeing whole ecosystems grow back to life.  In their work with farmers and landowners, they are able to open gateways to radical restoration of our landscapes and biodiversity, reversing the catastrophic species loss of the past five decades. 

Eva Bishop is their Communications Director. In this week's episode, we explore the work of the Trust and it's place in the wider systemic change we need if we're going to make it through the current bottleneck.
