<b>Rewilding the Earth to Rewild Ourselves | Laura Martin</b><br>
Planet: Critical<br>
Mar 13, 2024<br>
We need to restore our own ecology.<br>
<br>
That doesn’t just mean fencing off parts of the earth into “nature
conservation” spaces because, as this week’s guest Laura Martin
points out, what does that say about the space on the other side of
the fence? That human spaces are unnatural? Or that they don’t
deserve to be protected?<br>
<br>
Laura is an environmental historian, Assistant Professor of
Environmental Studies at Williams College, and author of the
extraordinary book, Wild by Design: The Rise of Ecological
Restoration. She joins me to discuss how policies create crises, not
just abstract notions of neoliberalism, fossil-fuelled capitalism,
and industrialisation. She says that environmental policies offer us
alternatives to our present. So which ones can we use to build a
world that protects both ourselves and the species with whom we
share this planet? <br>
<br>
We then discuss at length the difference between conservation and
restoration, with ecological restoration—rewilding—offering a
politics of care that sees humanity collaborate with fellow species
to promote ecological well-being everywhere, from the grasslands to
the inner city. <br>

<b>Lyn Alden: "The Myth of Frictionless Finance" | The Great
Simplification #113</b><br>
Nate Hagens<br>
Mar 13, 2024 The Great Simplification - with Nate Hagens<br>
(Conversation recorded on February 21st, 2024) <br>
<br>
Show Summary: <br>
On this episode, Nate is joined by investment strategist Lyn Alden
to discuss how energy and technology have shaped our monetary system
and current financial trends. While more people are becoming aware
of energy’s foundational role in our global systems, it is still
widely overlooked, especially among those working in finance. In
contrast, Lyn’s biophysically rooted analysis of macroeconomic
patterns expose the cyclical dysfunction of the world’s economy. How
has increasing energy availability and productivity offset the
inflationary nature of fiat currencies - and what happens if this
trend were to slow or reverse? What assumptions and biases have led
most analysts to mis-read long term trends, leaving us with
vulnerable economies? Is it possible to rejigger our systems and
innovate more biophysically aligned tools to enable a smoother
transition into a future with a lower energy throughput? <br>
