Protecting animals and land through community employment with Cara Braund @ Wildlife Works Kenya

Cara Braund spent nearly two years volunteering and working on various conservation projects in Kenya before landing her dream job - managing the office of a carbon-credit community-based conservation project in Eastern Kenya. At Wildlife Works, Cara helps manage several projects that are all part of a larger organization utilizing the local community to reduce carbon emissions and environmental destruction. They support everything from an eco-factory to eco-charcoal production and also have a wonderful eco-lodge where guests can stay and tour the 500,000 acres of protected land. -- Resources mentioned during this episode: REDD+ The 11th Hour Brush with Bamboo Carbon Offsetting with Wildlife Works -- Join the conversation on Facebook, follow us on Instagram, and try out our repurposed coffee body scrub.
