SENSESPACE

A powerful interview with Sophie Cowen, of the "Barclays Seven" a group of women who led a climate action against Barclays headquarters in London's financial district, breaking glass windows to draw attention to the bank’s funding of fossil fuels. In the interview we explore the powerful energies 'flowing through' extinction rebellion in 2018-19, Sophie's two-year experience following the Barclays action and the unfolding of their landmark trial at Southwark Crown Court. This interview was hosted with my regular collaborator, journalist Matthew Green. Matthew is a climate journalist at DeSmog and author of the excellent Resonant World substack exploring collective trauma healing. https://matthewgreenglobal.substack.com/ Sophie Cowen is a founder of Switch it Green.

First of a two part dialogue with Michelle Garner of O.G Rose. We explore truth as a moving spirit which we can be girded by. Michelle embodies a profound openness and willingness to enter the world's of others and she shares how being girded and rooted in truth affords this. We consider truth as redemptive and transformative to suffering. Then we look at how truth cultivated in philosophy doesn't always translate into social life and encounters with the opposite sex. -- In pt.2 we explore the wisdom of motherhood. -- O.G.

~The first in a new series 'The Doors of Dialogos' exploring the nature of Dialogos with pioneers and practitioners~ In this dialogue with Daniel Zaruba we explore some of the pathways into Dialogos as part of a larger exploration. This includes: remembering the dimension of being and the perspective beyond perspectives. I ask Daniel about the relation between Dialogos and prayer and how Dialogos might be implicated in Morphic resonance. We close with a number of considerations around sophistry and the potentially political nature of this 'wisdom scene'.

In the second Climate dialogue on SenseSpace i'm joined by Matthew Green and Wolfgang Knorr. Matthew Green is an author, climate journalist and writes at the 'Resonant world' substack on collective trauma healing. Wolfgang Knorr is a climate scientist, modeller & activist with decades of experience in climate science. We begin by exploring Wolfgang's radical thesis that 'Net Zero is a trap' and how the climate conversation is funnelled by models, negotiations and underlying hidden (onto-epistemological) frames. We open doors in the funnel of the climate conversation and explore an approach more rooted in not-knowing. We consider the 'addiction' nature of climate crisis and the realisation of climate crisis as 'healing crisis.
