Hi everyone, it's Sophia and welcome back to Work in Progress.

When you think Jane Goodall, your mind probably jumps immediately to chimpanzees and with good reason.

Her landmark study of chimps in the wild fundamentally changed our understanding of

humans' relationship to other primates and the capability of animals.

But Jane Goodall is so much more than her research in primatology, and today she is our guest

on Work in Progress. Dr. Goodall is also a powerhouse in climate change activism and conservation.

The Jane Goodall Institute's Trees for Jane campaign is creating a cross-generational

initiative to preserve, replenish and promote our planet's forests. She is an author whose newest

book, The Book of Hope, is coming out this month. Her TED Talks have millions of views,

her podcast hundreds of thousands of downloads, but Jane Goodall has always used her platform,

her many platforms in fact, for one thing. The betterment of our planet and human interaction

with the environment. I am so excited to talk with Jane Goodall and learn more about her as a

person, as well as dive deeper into her extensive career and the roles that she has taken on as an

advocate for nature. I hope you're excited too. Let's get started.

Good morning Jane, it's so lovely to see you again. Good to see you too.

I've been in my whole life with publishing books and all the COP26 coming up and all the pre-COP26

and all the UN stuff. It just doesn't stop. There's a minimum of two zooms a day. That's a minimum.

Two hours this morning, very busy all over the world. In one day I can be in China, India,

Tanzania, North America. It's incredible. I imagine that it must be surreal

all of these years into your work and career and your public advocacy to be, as you said,

busier than ever. Does it feel like we're at a moment where everyone is really, really listening
