Leah Rampy, from Earth & Soul, joins an eclectic group including Bill Drummond, David Graeber, and Chris Smaje to examine the intersection of populism and climate action. They discuss the stark contrasts between Green elites and grassroots movements. The conversation touches on nostalgic winter experiences, the absurdities of monarchy in the climate discourse, and the shift from 'cool' to 'good' in cultural production. Personal anecdotes enrich their reflections on legacy and the importance of humility in education through animal husbandry.
