Why nature isn’t “other” it’s “mother”, with Paul Hawken
About this episode
Paul Hawken discusses the problematic 'warrior mindset' in addressing the climate crisis and emphasizes our connection to nature.
We’ve all heard the language: “fight,” “tackle,” “combat” the climate crisis, right? But what if the “warrior mindset” wasn’t just a battle cry, but actually part of the problem? According to OG environmentalist Paul Hawken, it is, because it “others” nature. Paul joins Climate Curious to share why it’s time to stop trying to “fix” the Earth, and remember instead that we are a part of it. Enjoyed this conversation?
