Video: Jane Goodall commenting on Mongabay’s impact

Jane Goodall had some nice things to say about Mongabay’s work during a conversation with Climate One’s Greg Dalton and myself in San Francisco on September 16th.

I tell everybody, if you really want to know the truth about a particular issue, go to Mongabay.”

“We know we’re going through dark places on the planet today… We need to expose those places and we also need to share the good things that are being done, the hopeful things… That’s what you do with Mongabay.

Jane used the event to premiere her “Vote for Nature” video, a short version of which I shared with her and producer Jeff Horowitz‘s permission at https://lnkd.in/gxEd7CJj

Jane offered inspiration and many more insights. The full recording of the event follows. Her comments about Mongabay come at 7:00.

Jane also had more extended remarks at a post-event gathering.
