  • Bringing nature restoration into the 21st Century with Natural England Chair, Tony Juniper
    2025/08/13

    "I think what we need now is a new landmark Act of Parliament to set the vision for the coming 50 to 100 years; truly visionary in restoring nature at scale, but doing that in a way which is going to help the country to thrive in terms of public health, our resilience to climate change and to be able to secure our water and food security long into the future."

    In this episode of Rewilding the World Ben Goldsmith speaks with Tony Juniper, Chair of Natural England, and a lifelong campaigner for nature recovery. As well as overseeing restoration on a scale this country has never previously seen, Tony wants the government to bring forward a new Nature Recovery Act that will help modernise restoration in the natural world for the next century.

    "We're essentially trying to create an AI powered research assistant to accelerate the rate of discovery and support biologists understanding even more and help the biologists come up with new hypotheses from their own data."

    Imagine if we could decipher the language of other animals such as whales, monkeys or crows? How would that change our relationship with them? In this episode Ben Goldsmith talks with Katie Zacarian of Earth Species, which is using artificial intelligence to do just this.

  • Restoring Canada's iconic Bison with Tom Olson
    2025/07/16

    North America's iconic bison are recovering from the brink of extinction. Millions of bison once populated the North American landscape but by the turn of the 20th century, fewer than 1,000 remained.

    In this episode of Rewilding the World Ben Goldsmith talks with Canadian bison champion Tom Olson about the return of this majestic and vital keystone species to Canada.

  • Fighting organised wildlife crime with Olivia Swaak-Goldman
    2025/06/18

    "We have to make this crime type too risky and lower the reward. We need to seize all the assets that they gain from their criminal enterprise... it's something I'm very committed to."

    The illegal trade in wildlife and the body parts of wild animals is driving many creatures towards extinction; yet governments put little effort into busting the culprits and closing down this vile trade. In the latest episode of Rewilding the World, Ben Goldsmith talks to Olivia Swaak-Goldman, formerly of the International Criminal Court, who now runs a small charity named the Wildlife Justice Commission which is punching way above its weight in smashing criminal wildlife trade gangs.

  • Can rewilding and farming work together? With Toby Diggens
    2025/06/04

    "Go for it. Go into any kind of career even if you don't have that ecological education and change the culture from within. That's just such a powerful moment."

    How can rewilding and traditional pastoral farming systems go hand-in-hand? The grazing, browsing and movement of livestock has shaped our landscapes across millennia. In the latest episode of rewilding the world Ben Goldsmith speaks to landscape ecologist Toby Diggens to discuss how the rich agro-ecological history of Britain informs efforts to restore nature today.

  • Diving into New York’s Billion Oyster Project with Katie Mosher
    2025/05/21

    "Oyster reefs do this really special thing; they become a refuge for finfish species, for crabs, for all types of really important species and so it's really critical for all of those species to interact together and oyster reefs make that habitat."

    New York’s Billion Oyster Project is one of the most exciting urban rewilding projects ever. In this episode of Rewilding the World, Ben talks to Katie Mosher about the once vast abundance of oysters in New York and along the whole East Coast of America, the vital ecological role they play, and about plans for restoring them – starting in the middle of New York city.

  • Brokering finance deals to fund nature restoration with Rob Gardner
    2025/05/07

    “You’re going to invest in a fund but this fund is going to own peatlands, sphagnum moss, re-wiggled rivers. It's going to restore farmland, it's going to own oyster reefs.”

    How are we going to find the funding needed to restore nature at scale? Protecting communities and infrastructure from flooding, and drought, by rewilding river systems may hold the key.

    In this episode of Rewilding the World, Ben Goldsmith is joined by Rob Gardner of Rebalance Earth, a new initiative which aims to do just this.
