With spiralling mental health issues in young people and increasing eco-anxiety, how can connecting to nature play a role?

In this episode we hear from three young people with a passion for nature and all that it can offer. They discuss personal experiences in nature, their choice of career, and share their thoughts on sustainability; an insight into the role nature has in young people finding harmony in themselves and in the world.
