In this opening episode, host Izzy Fenwick is joined by James Palmer, Chief Executive and Secretary for the Environment, Ministry for the Environment. James is also co-chair of The Aotearoa Circle.
Together Izzy and James explore how environmental reporting has shaped action in Aotearoa New Zealand and why making data accessible and meaningful to leaders is vital for protecting our natural, economic resources.
They also unpack how far New Zealand has come in connecting environmental evidence with business and policy decisions, and what the Ministry’s latest environment report tells us about the state of nature today and why we need to strengthen our natural resilience for tomorrow.
Step into the circle with James Palmer.
