EP 20 Buggered

Learn the Australian word "buggered". To mean exhausted or without energy. We apply this to the context of soils in Western Australia. They are buggered, knackered - without nutrients. Join Professor Hans Lambers and I for a discussion as to why these buggered soils make Western Australia so special. Learn how these soils make Western Australia one of the most bio-diverse places on the planet. Practice your listening to comparatives and superlatives such as worst, crappier as we discuss our favourite plants and places in Western Australia. You will also learn how plants communicate as you improve your communication skills. Learn about our carnivorous plants, our very own Christmas Tree and things such as dieback and threats to the ecology in Western Australia. I hope you enjoy this podcast and it gives you some ideas as to how to plan your journey in Australia!
