This documentary feature immerses you in the wettest part of the driest continent on earth, a tiny patch of emerald green. A World Heritage area. We’re walking through the landscape with people collaborating on interconnected projects – looking after tree kangaroos whose fragmented forest habitat needs re connecting, finding seeds for propagation, replanting great tracts of rain forest, and protecting the whole from a tiny but deadly invader – the yellow crazy ant.How are people doing this work and what drives them? How do they remain hopeful and passionate in the context of global climate disruption?For more stories: https://landcareaustralia.org.au/rescue/.Produced and presented by Gretchen Miller.Sound engineering by Judy Rapley.This podcast is supported by UNSW, Landcare Australia and through an Australian Government Research Training Program Scholarship."Liking the show?Leave us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts here!Support us directly on Pozible!Support Climactic See /privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
