    The rewilding powerhouse of Europe with Wouter Helmer

    "If you give rivers more space to flood the lands, to bring sediment - sand, clay - they not only bring sediment, they also bring life!" In this episode of Rewilding the World, Ben Goldsmith interviews one of the most impactful architects of rewilding in Europe, Dutchman Wouter Helmer. Despite being the most densely populated, intensively farmed and heavily developed country in Europe, The Netherlands is a rewilding powerhouse.  Wouter's key insight is simply that rewilding offers the most effective way to protect communities from flooding which has blighted the Netherlands for centuries. As a result, the country is now threaded with fat, vibrant corridors of nature, teeming with wildlife. Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast. Join him as he speaks to people from all over the world who champion nature and are helping to restore habitats and wildlife to some of the most nature depleted parts of our planet.

    Finding solace in nature with Dave Mountjoy

    "The animals are already existing in a mindful, non-thinking state and it's us who have to experience that moment where everything stops and you're just being, you're just experiencing in the most direct way the absolute beauty that the natural world contains." Like Ben Goldsmith, the latest guest on Rewilding the world, Dave Mountjoy, found deep solace in nature following an appalling family tragedy.  Nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees, Dave wrote a book about the profound connection he developed with his herd of native cattle and with the landscape that sustains them. Dave's book, Being With Cows, is incredibly moving and powerful. Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

    Managing England's forests for nature with Bev Nichols

    "What are the things that really might just make a difference that take us out of a conventional nature conservation headspace and start to really push the boundaries of what can be done?

    Rewilding back to the Ice Age with Nikita Zimov

    "I don't want to make a zoo. I don't to take care of those animals for eternity, I want them to live on their own and in order to have a sustainable ecosystem it's extremely important to have all niches filled in this ecosystem."  In the place of the vast Siberian tundras were once great grasslands teeming with wildlife, until early humans hunted them out.  In the latest episode of Rewilding the World Nikita Zimov explains how his Pleistocene rewilding project in remotest Siberia is using wild horses, muskox, yaks and even camels to restore these grasslands, which - he suggests - can go a long way towards solving the climate crisis.

    The crisis facing the curlew with Mary Colwell

    "If it quacked like a Duck, to be honest I don't think we’d be that excited about it but because it sings like an angel and it looks so beautiful and it lives in liminal spaces - these wetland areas where we don’t really feel at home - all those things add together to make the Curlew a very mysterious and very loved bird." In this episode Ben Goldsmith is joined by Mary Colwell, Director of Curlew Action. She is also a writer, producer and a giant of Britain's conservation movement. Mary has devoted herself to saving the magical curlew from extinction – a species which seems to be negatively impacted by all of the bad things we do in our countryside.  Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

    Why coexistence with wolves is vital with range-rider Daniel Curry

    "They don't hate wolves, they just hate the idea of losing their livelihood. So for me, if we can prevent the conflict, and we can empower rural areas and rural land owners and ranchers to be the best stewards of the land that we can, that's the best way to keep conservation alive in the West." In the latest episode of Rewilding the World Ben Goldsmith talks to range-rider Daniel Curry who works with cattle ranchers to foster coexistence with wolves and other wildlife. Daniel is doing vital work in a complicated situation. Until we find harmony with wolves we will not have a healthy relationship with the natural world.
