In this episode of Nature In A Nutshell, we discuss the importance of soils in light of World Soils Day on 5th December with guest speaker Bruce Lascelles, the launch of COP28 and the Scottish Biodiversity Strategy consultation.

We also cover the positive news that seabird numbers are soaring in Lundy Island in the Bristol Channel.
