River Buffers & the Giant Sponge - with Arlin Rickard OBE The Lodge Cast
-
- Nature
Were you ever aware of the long lost story of The Great British Wetland? Introducing your storyteller: Arlin Rickard OBE. Founder of the West Country Rivers Trust and later The Rivers Trust organisation, now their Chief Policy Advisor - Arlin is a leader of freshwater in his own league - leading the movement for over 25 years.
A key contributor in Beaver Trust's upcoming documentary about river buffers On The Edge, Arlin tells us how rivers should be highly connected, dynamic, multi-faceted systems, instead of reservoirs of pollutants. He explains how simple measures like river buffers could restore our rivers to ecological health, and crucially improve community and agricultural resilience to incidences of climate-induced flooding, drought and pollution.
Also coming up: a #FactOff challenge and Eva puts Emma and Sophie's global river knowledge to the test.
Need we say more? Dive on in!
Are you a beaver believer? We want to hear from you: Beaver Trust.
