Public policy impacts everyone’s life, for better or worse.
The decisions taken by faceless civil servants have a lasting impact on the lives of every person on the planet and on the health of the planet itself. Yet beyond high profile officials, very few people know or appreciate the individuals who have dedicated their lives to creating and implementing the policies that change the world around us.
We feel it’s time to change that.
Join us each week as we interview the practitioners of public policy, discuss the work they do, and its impact on the world.

Books Driving Change: Enric Sala and The Nature of Nature
In this week's episode we talk with Enric Sala, Explorer in Residence at the National Geographic Society, who has written a terrific new book, The Nature of Nature: Why We Need the Wild.
Enric is an extraordinary enthusiast for nature and a practical person who has personally led important work to save large amounts of the ocean through his Pristine Seas initiative, which we discuss in this podcast. For people who are committed to building back a better world, there could be no better practical guide to some of the challenges of nature of which there are many: preserving our climate, preserving our planet in a healthy way, than Enric Sala. We ask why we do need the wild and many of the calls for action that he makes in the book.
