Collective Climate Action: Emily Johnston on using our social nature to work for a thriving world
Manage episode 414828317 series 3460401
In this episode, Emily Johnston explains that the life we're living now isn't just on a collision course with Earth's limits; it's also historically abnormal in the extreme. How can we ensure that our social nature begins to work far more for a thriving world, than against one?
Emily Johnston is an essayist (anthologized in “All We Can Save”) and poet (“Her Animals”), as well as a co-founder of 350 Seattle, and more recently of Troublemakers. She was also part of the valve-turner action in 2016, shutting down all the tar sands crude pipelines into the U.S. with four friends. She hosts the podcast “A Wild and Beautiful World.”
