This week’s Frankly (#105) by Nate Hagens is particularly worth listening to. It is entitled “Key Blindspots of the Walrus Movement”. The “Walrus Movement” is Nate’s term for well-intentioned champions of morally sound social and ecological goals who, however, do not take the biophysical limits and energetic realities of the planet into account.

Nate asks, what happens when lofty goals sidestep ecological and energetic realities? How might we incorporate these oversights to drive clear, purposeful action towards a (more) sustainable future? And how do we ground ourselves in biophysical truths while envisioning a system that better serves the planet and its people?
