Brokering finance deals to fund nature restoration with Rob Gardner

This is the title of an episode of Ben Goldsmith's 'Rewilding the World' podcast series. I have been wondering for a while, how is it done? Here is a crystal clear outline.

The really interesting bit to me at least, seems to be to find out who benefits not only directly, but also indirectly from conserving, restoring or rewilding a piece of nature, and who has long term interests. Who would have guessed that oysters are related, not only to clean water supply, but also to pet food, according to Mr. Gardner, one of food companies' mayor sources of revenue?

The podcast can be found on Spotify, Apple podcasts, and other channels.
