Today we’re breaking down a few basic concepts in the discussion on climate change. We talk through terminology that’s common but sometimes misunderstood including global warming, greenhouse gasses, fossil fuels, carbon emissions, and carbon sequestration.

In previous episodes, you’ve heard the etymology of “regeneration” and “sustainability.” Today we bring the root of the word “conservation” into the conversation, which delivers an interesting depth to what might otherwise be a pretty heavy topic.

Referencing an article recently published by Charles Eisenstein, we share the perspective that shifting our focus from carbon to water and from climate change to ecocide is essential for understanding how to make empowered decisions at this time. We talk a bit about the living Earth view, love, and how true environmentalism requires responsibility more than it demands activism.

Join us as we anchor the belief that our beautiful planet is inherently healthy and whole.
