Description

Climate change is gradually threatening the existence of many of Australia’s endemic species, but is the country doing everything it can to help preserve them? Could we learn from experiences overseas? In this episode of The Churchill Collective, host Adam Spencer explores this emerging crisis with environmental scientist and author Timothy Low, who specialises in preserving our native reptiles. Tim discusses his experiences from his Churchill Fellowship, which was designed to uncover new ideas for species preservation from the Northern Hemisphere, and explains how global initiatives can inform scientists back home in Australia.
