Themes: Consumerism, Humanity, Biodiversity, Health, Sustainability, Natural Law, the Microbiome

Summary:

Dr. Zach Bush is back for the third time for a deep dive into the health and future of both humanity and our planet. Zach is a renowned, multi-disciplinary physician of internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care and is an internationally recognized educator on the microbiome as it relates to human health, soil health, food systems, and a regenerative future.

In this episode, we dive into the planet's vulnerability and how it’s demanding a massive change in our current systems. We also explore the responsibility we all have to reimagine humanity as a system of coherence with nature instead of fighting against natural law. 

Discover:

  • Why the world is in a state of tumultuous transformation and what is possible for humanity and the earth if we’re able to develop a cohesive vision for the future
  • How over time, humanity has shifted from a mindset of sharing, reverence and abundance to one of ownership, extraction and competition, and the negative consequences this is having on planet earth
  • The importance of diversity on ALL levels, from bacteria to crops to thoughts and opinions
  • Natural law and how we can use nature’s ancient wisdom as a template for a new, more coherent human society
