Description
We care about the planet. But what if it's time to stop "saving it"?
Western cultures and even some climate scientists and sustainability advocates often share the idea that there is the natural world and the human world. The natural world is seen as pristine and untouched, while the human world is chaotic and ever changing. But all living things change the world around them in order to build homes, eat, drink and move around. In this first episode, join host Rae Wynn-Grant, Ph.D., as she explores how humans can think differently about the way we change the environments around us, how we can do it better, and why doing so could be a key foundation for addressing climate change.
Based on the Jenny Price book "Stop Saving the Planet!"
Correction:
A previous version of this video had onscreen text that mistakenly identified the speaker as "Voice of Joshua Johnson, The Week, MSNBC." The speaker is actually Dominic Waghorn, appearing on the TV show The Week with Joshua Johnson and the video has been updated to correct this.
