We kick off with a local twist: recent Danish elections saw barely a whisper about forests or nature - despite many municipalities quietly working on ambitious reforestation plans. We explore how places like Aalborg Kommune are expanding their forest cover, and why turning farmland into forest remains a huge political and economic challenge.

Then it’s off to space. Again. Planet has launched “OWL” - a new generation of Earth observation satellites with 1m resolution, near-daily coverage, and on-board AI. We unpack what this means for forest monitoring, data access, and privacy in a world of 24/7 satellite eyes.

Also in this episode:

• What’s really going on with the EUDR? Parliament fast-tracks it, Council deadlocks it - and Denmark is stuck chairing the whole mess
• Australia’s ForestTECH conference: why we still want to go
• Is it time for satellites to block the sun? (Elon thinks so)
• A rant on biodiversity buzzwords - and why “Reduced Biodiversity Footprint” might be the most confusing phrase of the year

A wide-ranging episode on policy, technology, and communication - plus a reminder that owls are, in fact, not that smart.
