Episode One: Jeremy Lent
Jeremy Lent is described by Guardian journalist George Monbiot as “one of the greatest thinkers of our age”. His recent book, “The Web of Meaning: Integrating Science and Traditional Wisdom To Find Our Place In The Universe”, is a richly researched and inspiring guide / call to arms for our time, creaking as we are under shifting and collapsing social, environmental, ecological and political systems. The book is part inspiration for this podcast.
In his conversation with Ben, Jeremy unpacks these crises, their causes and points to simultaneously new and ancient ways to organise, make sense of the world, live and thrive.
