Join our hosts for Wednesday’s show where we will be discussing: ‘Earth Day’ and ‘Nature v Nurture’ Earth Day: It is Earth Day. How are you doing your bit to look after the planet. Beyond the self, what needs to be done as a collective to make the world a better place for us now and future generations? Nature v Nurture Are we shaped by our genes, or by the environment around us? Join us as we explore how our environment, experiences and even the passage of time can influence how our genes are expressed, meaning who we become is shaped by both biology and the world we live in.
