Nature In A Nutshell

CIEEM

In every Nature in a Nutshell episode, we sit down to chat about the latest ecology news in the UK and Ireland. We will break down what it means and how it might impact nature, society, and those working in this space in an easily digestible way. Whether you are an aspiring ecologist or environmental manager, there will be something for you. 


This podcast is brought to you by the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management. CIEEM is the leading professional membership body representing and supporting ecologists and environmental managers in the UK, Ireland and abroad.


With a growing membership and an increasingly influential voice we are transforming the professionalism of the sector, just as our members are transforming understanding of, and attitudes towards, protecting and enhancing our natural environment.
