Episode notes

Economia was coined in ancient greece a century before aristotle. It meant household management, more like the homec class that a lot of us might have taken in school. If you evoked homo economics, the economic person for aristotle and the greeks, who would have come to mind for them, the first economic person is woman. And that's that's a sycle puff and a social puff.

In our Season 5 finale: What’s the cultural transformation we need to make — in the West, and the U.S. in particular — to live in good health with the rest of the natural world and with each other? Episode 11 of The Repair, our series on the climate emergency.
