Massive Amazonian medicine encyclopedia gets an update, and Madagascar conservation efforts examined

Summary: Mongabay speaks with Christopher Herndon, a medical doctor who as co-founder and president of the group Acaté Amazon Conservation helped the indigenous Matsés people to document their traditional healing and plant knowledge in a 1,000 page encyclopedia. Also on the show is Rowan Moore Gerety, a veteran radio and print journalist that Mongabay hired to examine the factors that contribute to or hinder success of conservation efforts in Madagascar, one of the most biodiverse countries in the world.
