In the final episode of our three-part pod on the underlying drivers of biodiversity loss, we’re joined again by NatureScot to look more at who gets a say in the changes we need to make, who can we trust and who benefits from doing things differently. Do we need a different type of democracy to tackle biodiversity loss?

Host:
Elaine Maslin, Media Officer at the Hutton

Guests:
Professor Robin Pakeman, plant ecologist at The James Hutton Institute and lead author of the report on the underlying drivers of biodiversity loss.

Dr Clive Mitchell, Strategic Resource Manager for Nature and Climate Change, NatureScot.

Dr Kerry Waylen, senior researcher in the Social, Economic and Geographical Sciences department at The James Hutton Institute.
