🎙️ Choosing to Matter: Cocktails with Chris Nature, Cities, and Endurance with Russell Galt Episode 5 In this episode, Chris sits down with Russell Galt, ecologist, strategist, and lifelong advocate for the natural world. From growing up in the Scottish Highlands to tracking hyenas in South Africa, cycling across Continents, and now working at the intersection of conservation, cities, and carbon markets, Russell's journey is one of curiosity, courage, and commitment. Along the way, his love for whisky and bagpipes, and his stories of wilderness encounters, bring a deeply personal dimension to his path. What drives Russell's work is a conviction that nothing is too broken to be repaired. Not bicycles, not communities, not even our relationship with nature. Together, we explore the lessons of resilience, the urgent need to reimagine cities as ecosystems, and the power of individual choices to ripple outward. This is a hopeful conversation about endurance, generosity, and building futures where people and nature thrive together. 🍸 Cocktail of the episode: Whisky [Talisker] 🎧 A thought to leave you with: What if every city was designed as an ecosystem: resilient, alive, and deeply connected to nature?
