Welcome to Why We Care, the podcast where together we explore our relationship with the natural world, to better understand how intertwined nature is with our daily lives – but also to rekindle our sense of wonder towards it. We dive into what our separation from nature means, and take a look at practical ways to restore and nurture this vital relationship.

Hear from the people at the heart of the environmental movement, all around the world – scientists, activists, and campaigners but also artists and storytellers, who are all relentlessly advocating for change. I hope these conversations will inspire you to challenge the status quo, and give you hope. Thank you for tuning in, and sending you lots of love!

Steve Backshall, Lizzie Daly and Sarah Roberts bring you a wildly entertaining nature show filled with adventure, behind-the-scenes stories, and fascinating facts. Think: unexpected encounters, jaw-dropping science, and nature like you’ve never heard it before.

Every Tuesday join adventurer, explorer and broadcaster Steve Backshall, wildlife biologist Lizzie Daly, and journalist Sarah Roberts as they dive deep into the wonders of the natural world. From braving Arctic extremes to swimming with sharks, each episode begins with a bold superlative—Flamboyant, Freezing, Venomous—and unfolds into their remarkable tales of the wild.

Then, every Friday, it’s your turn. Our Q&A episodes tackle your most need-to-know nature questions—from how not to become bear food to how long is an elephant’s trunk?  

Because the world is wild, its wonders are endless—and we’re here to tell the stories that prove it.
