Ecology Matters - Trailer

Ecology Matters is a podcast from the Ecological Society of Australia, a not-for-profit organisation supporting ecologists and ecological science in Australia. The first episode will launch July 2022 and can be found at www.ecolsoc.org.au/publications/audio/ecology-matters. Meet ecologists from around Australia, discover what makes them passionate about Australian ecology, and what their hopes and fears are for the future of our natural world. Episodes include: > Why is Norfolk Island so special and what is threatening its unique creatures? > How do Indigenous and western ecological knowledge intersect? > What does the smelliness of plants have to do with how wallabies find food? > Why are some young leaves pink before they turn green? > How can farmers and conservationists benefit from each other’s knowledge? > What makes a tropical rainforest burn? > Why would an ecologist interested in wood ducks spend their time studying wetlands and rivers instead? Or a marine biologist start studying terrestrial reptiles? > Why is TALKING about science an important part of doing science?  And more! Meet the ecologists behind these questions, learn more about their work and why they think that ecology matters.
