Summary

The interconnectivity between humans and nature is inherent, yet often overlooked. This begs the question: How can we use this connection to build a healthier relationship with our planet and its inhabitants?

In this episode, we are joined by Tom Oliver, critically acclaimed author of The Self Delusion: The Surprising Science of Our Connection to Each Other and the Natural World. In addition to his work as an author, Tom is also a Professor of Applied Ecology at the University of Reading.

Listen now to hear about:

Interactions between land use and climate change.
Global initiatives to protect nature.
Eastern religions’ outlook on environmental health.
How individual egos influence the collective ecological worldview.
