Helen Avery, the director of Nature at the Green Finance Institute recently joined David on the ‘How to Avoid Moving to Mars’ podcast.

Helen and David explored her shift from corporate journalism to nature finance, as well as her position at the Green Finance Institute. They delved into various subjects, including corporate natural capital, nature credits, and the potential they hold as a source of income for farmers.

In this special bonus episode, Professor David Hill talks us through the new Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) mandate that comes into force from 12th February, and what it means for developers, farmers and the wider biodiversity sector.

Our latest guest on How to Avoid Moving to Mars is Conor Gillespie, CEO at environmental restoration specialists Ecotone.

Having started out as an ecologist, Conor has spent years working in biodiversity, and talks with David about his experience in environmental restoration solutions and biodiversity net gain.
