This week we are trying to solve nature conservation problems using social psychology. Humans are a part of nature, and we need to be responsible for protecting it rather than potentially irreversible damage. During our conversation, we discuss topics such as animal control, green prescriptions, Australian Dingoes, Canadian super wolves, spying on other animals and what we can do as individuals to preserve nature.

Dr Lily van Eeden is an interdisciplinary scientist with expertise in conservation biology and social psychology. She's striving to solve nature conservation problems by understanding people, including how they interact with nature and what causes them to act in ways that protect or harm the natural environment.
