S1E20: Dave Goulson - Silent Earth

In this episode we are joined by the fantastic author Dave Goulson. We talk about the importance and range of wonderful insect species that inhabit our world, how and why they are important to us, and unfortunately, how severely they're now threatened. We look into the incredible destruction caused by pesticides on insect species, their potency and legacy. As well as their potential impact on our health too. A bit of a darker episode than normal, but no doubt, one of our most important.

Guest:
Dave Goulson – Author & Professor of Biology at University of Sussex
