Dan James from The Eden Project on plans to create more than 18 hectares of new heathland near St Austell

We hear a lot about how the world's rainforests are under threat - but did you know that, on a global scale, it's actually heathland that's in more trouble.

But don't worry - in the next few years, you could see much more of it springing up in Cornwall, after three of the county's big players agreed to work together to create acres of wildflower, woodland and heathland habitat alongside the new A30 link road.

Our weekend presenter Jack Murley has been finding out more from Dan James, the Development Director at The Eden Project.
