I’d love to know the keys to creating a sustainable ruckus = how not to become emotionally burnt out by all the messed up thinking/actions around us re: climate, housing market, Meta taking over our lives.
Also if you had tips on publishing on a difficult topic (a la first we make the beast beautiful) for a budding first time author 🙋🏻♀️
Oh also I would love to chat about changing our food system. We are avocado farmers and the system is broken. Farmers markets alone aren’t the answer but how do we lead a conversation around a whole of system approach to change. Farmers are responsible for huge parcels of land but there is currently no financial reward or incentive for best practice, sustainable, ethical farming. I listened to your interview with Rebecca Giblin about Chokepoint Capitalism and it got me very inspired again. Farmers are like creatives, we love the work and just want to produce things.. but that gets exploited.. and actually we don’t really need that much! It’s a whole situation with many layers but I’d love to hear your thoughts. Looking forward to it xx
Katrina, what you describe is interesting and I'm touched by your humility. I read about a supermarket in the Netherlands (?) that charges what the products true value is inclusive of climate costs. I'll try dig it up
Ah yes, like what Seth suggests in terms of charging the real cost for things. It's a big puzzle, supermarkets (chokepoint), logistics, farmers, climate, soils, fertiliser and chemicals, feeding the world (food shortage is not the problem, distribution is) everything being driven by the need to make money, there's so many layers. In my experience there's not enough, big picture, middle ground conversations.
Would also be really interested to talk about this. Such an important part of our system that plays a huge role in looking after our environment but the industrial farming system is broken (realistically was never really great to start with) and its only going to become worse as exteme weather events become more frequent. Looking forward to hearing different persepctives :)
I’ll be on my way to Hawaii & plan to use some flight time to catch up on your podcasts... but I love that you are having a get together and am imagining it will be a right hemisphere-in the moment adventure welcoming bliss, via zoom internationally ✨💫
Yep I'm there. This is for the parent's amongst the community. Can you parent and make space for the big questions? Are we in a time where pro-creation dilutes our ability to focus on what our world really needs?
Ps as a wino I'm totally happy to recommend any beverage selections for your glass of wine.
Sounds fun ☺️

Building momentum for people in the mainstream to choose the sustainable choice, in the face of affordability, convenience and distraction, how to?
