Today I sit down with John Seed, founder of the Rainforest Information Centre and long-time environmental activist, who has dedicated his life to the protection of rainforests and their biodiversity since 1979. John is well versed in the field of Deep Ecology and has helped to develop the body of knowledge known as 'The Work That Reconnects', originating with Joanna Macy. Today John and I discuss:
- John's activism story - how he came to be a protector of the rainforests;
- The body of knowledge known as Deep Ecology;
- How John came to be working with Joanna Macy and how he has contributed to the evolution of The Work That Reconnects;
- John's experience of 'burnout' and the interesting ways he received guidance from Mother Earth; and
- Some Deep Time perspectives to help us grapple with the present moment.
