Podcast appearances and mentions of Dave Goulson

CrowdScience listener Saoirse is vegan and doesn't eat honey. But she's been wondering - might honey actually have environmental benefits, by giving bee populations a boost? To find out, presenter Anand Jagatia dons a bee suit and opens up some hives with biologist Dave Goulson, who reveals that there are over 20,000 bee species on earth – and not all of them need saving. Honeybee researcher Alison Mcafee talks about the importance of beekeeping for crop pollination, and why honeybee colonies around the world are collapsing. Although, as she explains, in some places beekeeping might actually be bad for endangered wild bees. We travel to Kenya to meet Loise Njeru and Lucy King, who show how the humble honeybee can be a powerful tool for conservation – helping to protect the mighty elephant. And, on a rooftop in London, former beekeeper Alison Benjamin explains how we can support the wild bee species that need our help.

Since plants have to mate and produce offspring while rooted to the spot, they have to be pollinated – by wind, water, or animals – most commonly insects. They use a surprising array of tricks to attract pollinators: striking colours, iridescent light effects, and enticing scents, to name but a few. Insects, on the other hand, do not seek to pollinate plants – they are looking for food; so plants make sure it's worth their while. Insects are also remarkably sophisticated in their ability to find, recognise and find their way inside flowers. So pollination has evolved as a complex dance between plants and pollinators that is essential for life on earth to continue.

Vooral om te genieten, daarom heeft Kars een insectvriendelijke tuin. En natuurlijk om insecten te helpen. Hoe doe je dat eigenlijk, een tuin insectvriendelijk maken? In deze aflevering spreekt Anthonie daarover met Kars Veling, projectleider bij De Vlinderstichting. Aan de hand van voorbeelden en verhalen uit zijn eigen tuin, neemt Kars je mee naar een tuin die een thuis wordt voor insecten. Waar moet je beginnen? We bespreken de vier V's voedsel, veiligheid, voortplanting en verspreiding, bekend van aflevering 69 met Marijn Nijssen. Hoe geef je die v's vorm in je tuin? Met welke soorten planten? En maakt het dan uit of het inheemse of uitheemse planten zijn? We bespreken de verrassende gevolgen van een vijver en lopen tenslotte enkele veelgehoorde bezwaren tegen een insectvriendelijke tuin langs. Dansen in het groen, wie wil dat nou niet?Kars tipt ‘Geroezemoes in het gras' van Dave Goulson. Ook tipt hij de presentatie over waardplanten (pdf) die Wankja Ferguson maakte voor de Landelijke Dag van De Vlinderstichting op 1 maart 2025. Anthonie tipt een handige Britse database waarin je kunt zoeken op welke insecten van een plantensoort gebruik maken en andersom welke plantensoortendoor een insectensoort gebruikt worden.  Reacties op deze of eerdere afleveringen zijn van hartewelkom!

Earlier this week, some of the world's leading astrophysicists came together at The Royal Society to question the very nature of our Universe. Does the Lambda Cold Dark Matter model, which explains the evolution of the cosmos and the Big Bang, need a rethink? Dr Chris North, an astrophysicist from the University of Cardiff, joins us in the studio to explain what this model says, and why it might need to be changed. The last few weeks seem to have been a non-stop cycle of depressing climate stories, with floods in Pakistan, mass coral bleaching and last month being the hottest March ever recorded. It's perhaps no surprise that many people are anxious about the news. Vic Gill is joined by Prof Lorraine Whitmarsh, an environmental psychologist at the University of Bath, and Tom Rivett Carnac, an author, political strategist and co-host of the podcast Outrage + Optimism. Together they discuss climate anxiety, and how to stay engaged with the news without feeling overwhelmed.And with all this wet weather, how are our precious insects faring? It turns out, bumblebees might have a trick up their fuzzy sleeves when the ground gets flooded - at least according to a new experiment led by Sabrina Rondeau from the University of Ottawa. We also get bumblebee expert Dave Goulson on the line to tell us more about these charismatic insects.

Een gaai op het bijenbalkon. Aan het begin van het gesprek wordt natuurjournalist Caspar Janssen even afgeleid door ornithologisch bezoek op zijn balkon. Anthonie spreekt met Caspar over zijn jarenlange ervaring als natuurjournalist voor de Volkskrant. Hoe kijkt hij naar het debat over natuur? Welke rol ziet hij daarin weggelegd voor de journalistiek? Zelf schreef hij talloze verhalen over natuur, landbouw en landschap. Wat drijft Caspar daarbij? En hoe gaat hij te werk? We ontdekken dat Caspar in het landschap van de harde scheidingen de schaarse plekken met zachte overgangen opzoekt. Daar waar de symfonie van een geelgors klinkt of het blauw van een korenbloem schittert is hij graag. En onvermijdelijk komt het gesprek dan op landbouw, de stilstand, verlammende polarisatie en een onmachtige overheid. We bespreken verschillende dilemma's waar natuurjournalisten tegenaan lopen en hoe je daarmee om kunt gaan. En bij welke schrijvers doet Caspar zijn inspiratie op? Caspar tipt ‘De uitvinder van de natuur' van Andrea Wulf, over het avontuurlijke leven van Alexander Von Humboldt. De inspiratiebronnen die Caspar noemt zijn Koos van Zomeren, Konstantin Paustovski, Jonathan Franzen, Dave Goulson en Tim Birkhead. Wil je reageren op deze aflevering? Dat vinden we leuk.

Zoemende graslanden vol bloemenpracht zijn in rap tempo verdwenen. En de resterende soortenrijke graslanden staan sterk onder druk. Maar wie een deprimerend verhaal verwacht, heeft het mis. Anthonie spreekt in deze aflevering met Stephanie Schelfhout en An De Schrijver, beide werkzaam aan de Hogeschool Gent als onderzoeker en docent. Ze noemen zichzelf de graslandnerds, en terecht. Zowel An als Stephanie raakte in het graslandonderzoek verzeild door beheerders die geen effecten zagen van hun graslandbeheer ondanks jarenlange inspanningen. In deze aflevering nemen we je mee op reis langs de oorzaken van achteruitgang, de verschillende graslandtypen, de huidige knelpunten in soortenrijke graslanden en verschillende mogelijke oplossingen in inrichting en beheer. We bespreken bijvoorbeeld de voor- en nadelen van herintroductie van soorten, of uitmijnen zinvol is en waarom gefaseerd maaibeheer noodzakelijk is. En hoe moeten we doelstellingen voor weidevogels en vegetatie combineren? Is dat eigenlijk wel te doen? Ook (vanaf 01:13:26) spreken we over de populaire campagne MaaiMeiNiet. Heeft dat zin? En kan voorjaarsmaaien soms toch een oplossing zijn? Stephanie en An delen nieuwe inzichten uit hun burgerwetenschapsproject FlowerPower de tuin, waarover ze ook een podcast maken. Leidt MaaiMeiNiet tot meer bloemen? En welk soort grasland zien mensen het liefst? Tenslotte roept An ons op om de lichtpunten in natuurherstel te blijven zien en benoemen en zet Stephanie een dikke streep onder de noodzaak van samenwerking tussen boeren en natuurbeheerders. Waarvan akte! De leestip van An is ‘Geroezemoes in het gras' van Dave Goulson en de leestip van Stephanie is ‘Pastorale. Nalatenschap van een schaapherder' van James Rebanks.   Wil je reageren op deze aflevering? Dat stellen we erg op prijs!

Rob starts off discussing the possible effects of allowing your pets to enter streams after being treated with flea and tick medicines. Please refer to Dave Goulson for more information. Brian DeLoach called up Rob to do some fishing while he and his wife visited the Washington DC metropolitan area during their spring break. Rob met Brian at Four Mile Run and immediately knew he was different than most of his clients. As they fished Rob made mental notes of what to ask Brian in a future podcast. They ended up podcasting the same day and then fished for snakehead after. Brian is a certified casting instructor, Project Healing Waters volunteer, and is the Vice President for the Lee University Angling Club.

It's peak season for illegal hare coursing, with Lincolnshire Police investigating reports of more than 27 incidents in the county in just one weekend. The illegal practice, where dogs are set off in fields to chase hares, is often bet on, and Lincolnshire is one of the areas most frequently targeted by coursers due to its flat, rural nature. But Lincolnshire's specialist Rural Crime Unit says updated legislation is helping police reduce the amount of hare coursing in the county. As part of our week looking at the future of farm machinery, we visit the University of Falmouth where a daffodil picking robot is being developed. And we hear from Dave Goulson, Professor of Biology at University of Sussex, and founder of the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, a leading voice in the debate around how agriculture affects insect numbers. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Y así lo hace en 'El Agua', el poema que presenta y da nombre a su nuevo libro, 'Azul el agua', donde la escritora realiza un camino por la vida, pero de manera inversa. Desde lo oscuro a la luz, desde los momentos más tenebrosos hasta los más vitales. Tenemos el gusto de tenerla y que nos lea algunos de los poemas de su nueva obra. Después Miguel Ángel Delgado nos habla de ciencia. En concreto de la ciencia de los abejorros. Para eso nos cuenta el estudio que ha realizado el biólogo Dave Goulson, referente en investigar a este insecto. La música nos llama, en concreto la de La Fanfarria del Capitán, una banda que ya es casi un colectivo, con más de dos décadas de trayectoria a sus espaldas. Hablamos con la voz de la banda, Vicky Cornejo. Y, para terminar, Luis Antonio de Villena nos habla del poeta José María Álvarez. Escuchar audio

This week we are revisiting our interview with Professor Dave Goulson. Dave Goulson is a Professor of Biology at the University of Sussex (England), who specializes in bee ecology. Professor Goulson has published more than 300 scientific articles on the ecology and conservation of bumblebees and other insects, plus seven books, including the Sunday Times bestsellers “A Sting in the Tale” (2013), “The Garden Jungle” (2019), and “Silent Earth” (2021). In 2015 he was named number 8 in BBC Wildlife Magazine's list of the top 50 most influential people in conservation. In 2018, 2019 and 2020 he was named as a “Highly Cited Researcher” by Thompson ISI. He founded the Bumblebee Conservation Trust in 2006, a charity which has grown to 12,000 members and is a trustee of the Pesticide Action Network, as well as an “Ambassador” for the UK Wildlife Trusts, and president of Pesticide Free Scotland. Tune in to learn more about: His latest book “Silent Earth”, in which in the tradition of Rachel Carson's groundbreaking environmental classic Silent Spring, he explains the importance of insects to our survival, and offers a clarion call to avoid a looming ecological disaster of our own making; His fascination about insects that started from an early age and why they are important to us and to our lives; The pollination factor, even coffee and cocoa need pollinators; The difference between bumblebees and honeybees, and the unknown fact that there are over 20,000 of known bees species; Neonicotinoids and their negative impact on soil, streams and bees;  Insects as food - and how 80% of the world actually eat insects; Global warming and the impact on insects; His wish for each one of us is to welcome nature, to plant pollinator friendly flowers and don't spray any pesticides and also to buy local, organic food.

If you did your homework assignment, this is good follow up information on the gardens of Great Dixter and the symposium that Marianne Willburn and I will be attending next week! Not only do we talk about the gardening opportunity, but we also touch on the idea of saying yes to something it would have been far easier to say no to. The plant of the week is the Fringe Tree, and I also talk about No Mow May, getting rid of invasive Nandina, and the Joe Gardener podcast episode with Dave Goulson about his book 'Silent Earth: Averting the Insect Apocalypse'. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/intothegarden/support

This week, Richard and Becky are joined by Professor Dave Goulson, author of the best-selling book Silent Earth, along with Bee Quest, The Garden Jungle, A Buzz in the Meadow, A Sting in the Tale, Gardening for Bumblebees and more. We discuss what the changing climate could mean for us as gardeners and our insect fauna. We also discuss what we can do from our own patches to help fight against climate change. 

The insect apocalypse is negatively affecting the world in ways that we are only beginning to understand, and if we continue on our current path, insect decline and the loss of biodiversity across all types of animals and plants will not only continue but also accelerate. To help us understand the scope of the problem and explain ways we as gardeners can help reverse this trend, Professor Dave Goulson joins me on the podcast this week.

In our latest episode, Helen and Paul interview Professor Dave Goulson, the voice of bugs! Dave is a world renowned expert on bee ecology and an all round lover of insects. We talk chemical free farming and gardening, the top five plants for wildlife and what is a dead hedge? Find more of our podcasts online https://wildlifeworld.co.uk/blogs/podcast

This week's programme is all about being kinder to the earth and the creatures we share it with. Guy Barter meets the founder of Riverford Organic Farmers, Guy Singh-Watson, to discover how he turned a family dairy farm into a byword for sustainable food. Dave Goulson, author of Silent Earth – Averting the Insect Apocalypse shares his thoughts on how gardeners can be more active in the fight to save our bees, butterflies and all manner of threatened insects. Plus RHS Gardening Advisor Nikki Barker offers advice to gardeners who grow on sandy soil.

Entomology has been intertwined in fly fishing from the beginning. Studying insects may be the oldest part of fly fishing. A long time ago fish were observed eating insects and artificial bugs were created to fool the fish. There were a lot more bugs back then. A fraction of those organism exist today due to the need for human's to control nature.. How are you going to match the hatch when the hatch isn't there? Rob invited entomologist Dave Goulson on the show to discuss the insect apocalypse. Dave is a Professor of Biology at the University of Sussex. He has published more than 300 scientific articles on the ecology and conservation of bumblebees and other insect. He is a Fellow of the Royal Entomological Society, a trustee of Pesticide Action Network, and an Ambassador for the UK Wildlife Trusts. His most recent book Silent Earth: Averting the Insect Apocalypse Is out now.  Dave Goulson Dave's Books Produced by Jason Reif Buy Flies To Support the Podcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Ben Courtice is back to talk about pollinator preferences for flowers, with a focus on native insect pollinators. He's an ecologist, botanist and bush regenerator that's done his honours research on the button wrinklewort, an endemic aster in Victoria, and was trying to figure out why they were declining. We discuss floral constancy, density, shape, and a range of other factors that play into successful pollination.EPISODE LINKSFollow Ben on Twitter: https://twitter.com/bencourticeBen's article on native pollinators and flower preferences:Read Ben's book review of Silent Earth: Averting The Insect Apocalypse, by Dave Goulson: https://climateandcapitalism.com/2022/01/26/insect-apocalypse/ David Harvey on YouTube (Class 01 Reading Marx's Capital Vol I): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBazR59SZXkJohn Bellamy Foster on YouTube (The Return of the Dialectics of Nature): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nV_I2T5LipgDavid Grayber on YouTube (On Bullsh*t Jobs): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kikzjTfos0sNoam Chomsky on YouTube (Ecology, Ethics, Anarchism): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3uDEXyWfRcFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIATwitter: @PlantsGrowHere / Facebook: @PlantsGrowHerePodcast - Join our Facebook group!VISIT OUR WEBSITEwww.PlantsGrowHere.comLET'S WORK TOGETHERAre you in the industry or an enthusiast with something of value to share?

Drawing on thirty years of research, Goulson has written an accessible, fascinating, and important book that examines the evidence of an alarming drop in insect numbers around the world. "If we lose the insects, then everything is going to collapse," he warned in a recent interview in the New York Times--beginning with humans' food supply. The main cause of this decrease in insect populations is the indiscriminate use of chemical pesticides. Hence, Silent Earth: Averting the Insect Apocalypse (Harper, 2021)'s nod to Rachel Carson's classic Silent Spring which, when published in 1962, led to the global banning of DDT. This was a huge victory for science and ecological health at the time. Yet before long, new pesticides just as lethal as DDT were introduced, and today, humanity finds itself on the brink of a new crisis. What will happen when the bugs are all gone? Goulson explores the intrinsic connection between climate change, nature, wildlife, and the shrinking biodiversity and analyzes the harmful impact for the earth and its inhabitants. Meanwhile we have all read stories about hive collapse syndrome affecting honeybee colonies and the tragic decline of monarch butterflies in North America, and more. But it is not too late to arrest this decline, and Silent Earth should be the clarion call. Smart, eye-opening, and essential, Silent Earth is a forceful call to action to save our world, and ultimately, ourselves. Galina Limorenko is a doctoral candidate in Neuroscience with a focus on biochemistry and molecular biology of neurodegenerative diseases at EPFL in Switzerland.
