Nature News - Week 33 - Denmark Fueling Some Confusion & Columbia Fueling Positivity

Nerds, it's the last Nature News of 2025 as we all prep our homes for Christmas & fill the fridges with an incredible amount of food & drink. For the last week, Nadia takes us back through 2 news stories through the year to give us some updates & Ryan closes with revisiting Into The Wild's mini series of 2025, Journey Back to Namibia. From the pod, we wish you the most happiest Christmas & we will see you in the new year!

This week on Nature News we are all about fuel......of the fossil kind. Nadia starts with a story from Demark, which is one of capturing carbon to store back where they found it but, is this truly the solution? Next Ryan shares some news from Columbia about some fossil fuel bans which sound a bit more of a way forward.

To play or not to play? That is rarely the question but in this week's Nature News.....it actually is. After an experiment involving sharks & human toys took place during a controlled study, a question was raised asking "do sharks play?". It's also that magical time of year where we have.....AN AVIAN FLU UPDATE. Okay, so not quite the festive feels but nevertheless, an important look into what this virus is doing.
