Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The case for slow birding with Dr. Joan Strassmann
Q: What is the most overrated bird?
The Canada Goose, often overrepresented in urban spaces and discussions, which contrasts with conservation needs for less conspicuous species.
The power of Indigenous-led conservation with Ken Paul
Q: What does an IPCA really look like on the ground?
IPCAs are not simply boundaries on a map; they are living landscapes where Indigenous communities lead in protecting ecosystems, integrating traditional practices with modern governance, and ensuring that protections serve community priorities and sustainable livelihoods.
The power of Indigenous-led conservation with Ken Paul
Q: Can you describe two-eyed seeing a little bit for us?
Two-eyed seeing is an integrative approach that uses both Indigenous and Western perspectives as complementary lenses; it requires early relationship-building, understanding values and spiritual connections to place, and deliberate collaboration to resolve disagreements for better science and outcomes.
The power of Indigenous-led conservation with Ken Paul
Q: What exactly is Indigenous-led conservation?
Indigenous-led conservation is a relational framework grounded in reciprocal responsibilities to land and waters, guiding daily decisions and long-term planning, rather than a standalone program; it centers Indigenous leadership and knowledge in shaping conservation outcomes.
Earth Hour, coral reefs, and the power of hope with Andy Ridley
Q: First of all, where did the idea for Earth Hour come from, and what was the climate at the time in Australia?
The idea emerged from WWF-Australia amid a climate-skeptic political climate, where a campaign shift toward hope and city-wide mobilization aimed to show that ordinary people cared and could take action together.
