In this episode, we continue our journey in Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve to speak to people who are frustrated with growing invasives that are overtaking wetlands ecosystems and becoming uncontrollable, severely affecting livelihoods and wildlife. Is climate change fueling the rapid growth of invasive species in wetlands? The Reserve is investing in manually clearing wetlands of the invasive water hyacinth, and the local community is weaving products out of the weed. But is it enough to slow down the growth of invasives? Is there a limit to adaptability?
