Today on the RAZOR Podcast we Emma and Shini revisit one of our most popular stories. 

Back in Episode 13, Emma spoke to us about the anthropause: the worldwide slowing of human activity, which has led to many animals venturing further afield as people retreated inside. 

During that story we played you a clip from Professor Jim Smith from the University of Portsmouth. He  explained to us why the aftermath of the Chernobyl disaster gave us a lot of insight into how animals behave in the absence of humans in an urban environment.

Today on the podcast we share more from Prof Smith as we discuss what humans will have to do to address some of the damage that we’ve done to the planet [02:05 ].

We also hear from Shini and Emma as they tell us which stories have caught their attention in the world of science this week [06:22 ]. Remember if you want to watch the stories you can go to https://www.cgtn.com/europe/razor.
