What is a resplendent quetzal? And how can magnificent creatures like this enlighten and inspire us… and give us the courage to protect the world’s most wondrous ecosystems?
In this episode, T. A. welcomes onto the show his friend and hiking companion, Carter Roberts, the President and CEO of the World Wildlife Fund in the USA.
Carter shares with us his first magical experience in nature. He tells us how he finds time to get out in nature while leading one of the largest conservation organizations on the planet. He also explains what WWF is doing to protect our home planet, our fellow creatures, and ourselves.
T. A. and Carter discuss why we depend upon nature. We talk about climate change and the loss of nature, and how the two are intertwined.
And finally, we hear about Carter’s favorite animal, the resplendent quetzal.
