Episode notes

"Crit ecology is fascinating and so thrilling, and like, i could cry talking about it," he says. "It behooves exactly the wrong people to keep every one at odds,. And at the end of the day, the polarization is getting less done faster." He believes that solidarity is the only response to an increasingly divided society.

How do societal structures affect the planet? Why should we get to know our neighbors? What’s the ecological price we pay for … stuff? Yep, there’s an -ology for that. We chat with the founder of Critical Ecology: biogeochemist, National Geographic Explorer, researcher and plant nerd, Dr. Suzanne Pierre. Dr. Pierre’s Critical Ecology Lab is involved with research on the biomes of former plantations, air pollution, agricultural runoff, and even asking questions about wildfire science and the prison system. She explains how the Big Picture can always zoom out and be a little bigger. Before you know it, you’ll see Critical Ecology everywhere you go.
