#136- Leif Cocks: Saving the Orangutan and In Turn Our Planet

#136- Leif Cocks: Saving the Orangutan and In Turn Our Planet Jackson Huff 38:20

How do we save the planet? This week we try to explain just that when I am joined by world-renowned conservationist Leif Cocks. He tells us about his work as the CEO and Founder of the Orangutan Project and why it is so important to protect these amazing creatures habitat, which is quickly dwindling. This conversation is looked at from a lens of how protecting this one specific can in turn protect many others which snowballs into protecting our planet as a whole. This was a powerful, but at times uncomfortable conversation to have as Mr. Cocks is very blunt in his warnings of how dire he feels the next few years is to our world as we know it. You won’t want to miss it!

Jackson Huff Podcaster

I am in admissions and advising by profession where I speak with students every day about their future and goals. I have spent a decade learning peoples life stories and what makes them tick. So, a few years ago I decided to take that passion for people and make a podcast. Through this I have been able to speak with a lot of amazing people. People like Bob Eubanks (The Newlywed Game), Daphne Maxwell Reid (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air), Maddie Musselman (2x Olympic Gold Medalist), Francois Clemmons (Mister Rogers' Neighborhood), and countless others.
