In today's broadcast, after taking a look at the news, we talk to Ana Carricondo, director of a new project aimed at preserving biodiversity in Spain.  The project is called Secanos Vivos (Drylands Alive), and the organization responsible for it is Spain's oldest NGO, the Spanish ornithological society SEO/BirdLife.  We also engage in a brief train platform chat with writer and critic Alan W. Moore, and we meet rising Spanish mezzosoprano Cristina del Barrio.
