Abstract

In this episode, we dive into how the climate crisis is playing out locally and across the globe, and what that teaches us about our connection to the earth and each other. Our guests take us from the Birrarung River in southern Australia to the Mongolian Steppe, and to visit the shearwaters feasting on plastic on Lord Howe Island. There are many lives at risk, including our own, and there are navigational tools to not just track our interdependent fates, but to find ways to keep caring in the face of so much loss.
