Top 100 Nature Podcasts

We get it. You care about the climate crisis—but sometimes thinking about it is just too overwhelming. Well, we’re here to help with that. Host Dan Kwartler unpacks the problems and solutions behind big systemic issues in bite-sized episodes. You’ll find out which bag is best for the planet, imagine our world without humans, and follow the international journey of the very shirt on your back. Yes, we’re going to talk about the bleak stuff—it’s a crisis after all—but we’ll also share little ways you can make changes in your daily life, in your towns and cities, and at your workplaces to help change climate change. Ultimately we’re aiming for some HOPE through a focus on solutions, instead of just, you know, tumbling towards inevitable doom.

You can also get involved by joining Countdown, TED’s global initiative to accelerate solutions to the climate crisis in collaboration with Future Stewards. Find out more at countdown.ted.com

Strap on your binoculars and lace up your boots: A Field Guide to Gay Animals explores sexuality, gender, and joy in the animal world.

Hosts Owen Ever and Laine Kaplan-Levenson take you on a quest to see beyond the natural world as we know it and into the natural world as it is: queer as f*ck.

Homosexuality has been documented in over 1,500 species of animals. From gay geese and bisexual bison to lesbian elephant love affairs and all-male, all-whale orgies, expressions of same-sex action in the animal queendom are all around us.

Owen and Laine are your intrepid guides to investigate this variety of animal behaviors – exploring the depths of the ocean, the heart of the forest, and the bushes in your backyard – to dive deep into nuanced conversations about queerness in the animal world.

Cheeky and contemplative, curious and raunchy, Field Guide shows you the natural world is more exuberant, more joyful, and more gay than you could possibly imagine.

Coming in June, 2024.

Climate action.

Words that can inspire a declaration of ‘I haven’t got time for that!’... as you juggle the kids, PE kits, lunch boxes and your other half, who you seem to have mislaid somewhere between the front door and the car.

A squeal of ‘Where do I even staaarrrt?’ as you cry into your pillow in overwhelmed despair.

Or a dismayed ‘What’s the point? It’s too late!’ as you cry frozen tears into your comforting ice cream.

We hear you.

We all want a better, greener, fairer future for the kiddies in our lives, but the conversation can be so gloom filled and depressing, eh? And all that doomy gloom in the room just leads to action paralysis.

Well not here.

If you care about our magnificent planet and want to protect it for the next generation, but prefer to ENJOY the process, to be filled with HOPE, inspired to ACT and to CELEBRATE the actions we take, then this is the podcast for you.

Join the glorious combination of Aussie and Northern England accents provided by hosts Sally Giblin and Helen Hill. We chat to fabulously knowledgeable peeps who are taking action and giving us hope in all corners of the (errrm, round) globe.

These conversations will inspire you to stay optimistic and feel part of an ever-growing movement. To take actions that fit into your busy family life - which can turn ripples into waves.

Whether you’re a planet-conscious parent, groovy grandparent, fab foster carer, terrific teacher, awesome auntie or any other member of the extended family... all are welcome in our Mad-HATter (Hope. Act. Thrive-rs...geddit?) tribe.

The Earth is in trouble. But the ocean can help.

When it comes to tackling climate change and the biodiversity crisis, the ocean and the world’s coastlines offer many solutions. Yet these solutions don’t receive anywhere near enough money to realize them. And while governments and philanthropists should provide more funding, they can’t meet the challenge alone. Investments from the private sector are equally key to success.

Entrepreneurs across the world need support to integrate restoration and conservation into sustainable businesses. Only then can we create profit, both for people and for planet.

Join Dorothée Herr – manager of the IUCN’s Blue Natural Capital Financing Facility – to discover the reasons to invest in the ocean. In Investing For Ocean Impact we’ll talk to leading experts, global policymakers, and investment movers and shakers. We’ll also dive into real life, working examples of Nature-based Solutions, from seaweed farms to marine protected areas, and show how these are projects that investors can indeed get behind.

The time to invest in our ocean is now. Subscribe, wherever you get your podcasts, so that you never miss an episode.
