Episode 21 - Talking with Celina Chien about the Illegal Wildlife Trade, and the importance of truthful science communication

Celina is an intersectional conservationist, ecologist, photojournalist, ambassador for Girls who Click and a member of the youth council for Reseva - the Youth Land Trust. We talked about the Illegal Wildlife Trade, the importance of truthful science communication, her work with Reserva - the youth land trust, and the lack of diversity in wildlife filmmaking and photojournalism. We also finished off the episode talking about two incredible books, so stay tuned for more book-related content on my Instagram and Ko-fi page soon.
