Is Climate Change a Spiritual Crisis? (w/ Paul Hawken)

Mar 18, 2025

What if climate change isn’t just an environmental or economic issue, but a spiritual one? In this eye-opening conversation, Rainn Wilson and environmentalist Paul Hawken dive into the philosophy of regeneration—a revolutionary approach to healing the planet while revitalizing our sense of meaning and purpose. Paul explains why fear-based activism is failing, how indigenous wisdom offers a roadmap for sustainability, and why reconnecting to nature is the key to saving ourselves. They also discuss the hidden intelligence of plants, the role of community in social transformation, and what a 23-year-old in Tulsa can actually do to make a difference.


Paul Hawken is a renowned environmentalist, entrepreneur, and author. His work focuses on practical, systemic solutions to climate change that integrate ecological, social, and economic renewal.
