Jungle Deep - Episode 22 Environmental Progress with Dr. Russ Mittermeier

Author: Pet Life Radio July 31, 2013 Duration: 40:15
So what did happen in 2012? As a fan of Jungle Deep, you will know that we had an Earth Summit this summer. But there were several other important conferences this year, too. We will hear about: - The IUCN Congress - the International Union for Conservation of Nature get-together about species conservation which took place in South Korea in September. - The Biodiversity Convention in India, in October, producing new numbers about the great contribution of Indigenous Community Conservation Areas. - The Pacific Islands Leaders Forum in August, and the dramatic increase in protected ocean areas. - The United Nations Convention on Climate Change in Qatar, in December.

There's a whole world beyond the edge of the map, a vibrant and humid place where the air thrums with life. Jungle Deep-The Tropical Lifestyle Podcast is your audio guide to that world, brought to you by Pet Life Radio. This isn't about fictional adventures with a whip and a fedora; it's a genuine celebration of the lush, living tapestry of the tropics. Each episode digs into the details that define this lifestyle, from the specific care of exotic houseplants and the fascinating behaviors of jungle animals to the rhythms of island music and the communal spirit of Tiki culture. We listen to stories from people who have made their homes in these enchanted places or who carry that spirit with them, individuals committed to preserving the delicate ecosystems of the rainforest. The conversations here are about more than just observation-they're about cultivating a profound, personal connection with nature's most vibrant corners. If you've ever felt the pull of verdant leaves, the call of unusual creatures, or the beat of a steel drum, this podcast provides a deep, resonant echo. Tune in for a regular dose of warmth, wonder, and the shared experiences of those who find their home under the canopy.
