    In the run up to COP26, we have a conversation with Professor Davy McCracken, Head of Integrated Land Management at Scotland's Rural College (SRUC). Davy joined SRUC in 1995 and previously headed up our Hill and Mountain Research department. In this podcast, Davy talks about biodiversity, land management, addressing climate change, and the actions needed by farmers and land managers which will benefit them but also benefit Scotland as a whole. Davy talks about these issues through the lens of COP26 and COP15, and also touches upon how studying at SRUC prepares the next generation of sustainable land managers and farmers for a changing landscape. This episode is presented by William Ancell, SRUC's Digital Manager.
