everybody now: climate emergency + sacred duty

everybody now: climate emergency + sacred duty

one of my favourite musicians (david benjamin blower) + podcasts (nomad) have created a public domain episode about the climate crisis that is being released across the globe today by people who have their own public platform. here is that episode. more information here: https://www.nomadpodcast.co.uk/climate-crisis-podmarch/

------

we’ve caused a turning point in the earth’s natural history. "everybody now" is a podcast about what it means to be human on the threshold of a global climate emergency, in a time of systemic injustice and runaway pandemics. scientists, activists, farmers, poets, and theologians talk bravely and frankly about how our biosphere is changing, about grief and hope in an age of social collapse and mass extinction, and about taking action against all the odds.

on 19th october 2020, "everybody now" is being released by podcasters all over the world as a collective call for awareness, grief and loving action. 

with contributions from:

dr. gail bradbrook - scientist and co-founder of "extinction rebellion"

prof. kevin anderson - professor of energy and climate change at the university of manchester

dámaris albuquerque - works with agricultural communities in nicaragua

dr. rowan williams - theologian and poet, and a former archbishop of canterbury

pádraig ó tuama - poet, theologian and conflict mediator

rachel mander - environmental activist with "hope for the future"

john swales - priest and activist, and part of a community for marginalized people
