053: Climate Change Coaching in Madagascar with Mark Jacobs

"If you look at an eco-system and take out one species and make one change, it’s very hard to work out what that new equilibrium will be.”

Mark Jacobs, Managing Director of SEED Madagascar, an award-winning British charity leading on a wide range of sustainable developments and conservation projects spanning 21 years, joins George Warren for an engaging interview. Mark’s passion and dedication are highlighted in this conversation about the work of SEED and the effects of climate change on the island's impoverished communities, and how coaching can be part of the solution.

Listen to Mark as he describes the climate breakdown he has witnessed, the effects on the communities of Madagascar, and how this has led to food insecurity, unpredictable seasons, and numerous other harmful effects.
