Rachel Carson is the trailblazing marine biologist and author whose groundbreaking work forever changed the way we understand our environment. Best known for her 1962 book Silent Spring, Carson exposed the dangers of pesticides like DDT, catalyzing the modern environmental movement and leading to lasting changes in U.S. law and policy. But her story is about much more than one book. From her early fascination with the ocean to her tenacity in the face of intense industry backlash, we explore how Rachel Carson's passion for nature and relentless pursuit of truth shaped not just the scientific community, but the world. Join us as we celebrate the life of a true environmental hero. Follow us on IG: @homance_chronicles Connect with us: linktr.ee/homance Send us a Hoe of History request: homancepodcast@gmail.com

Die Klimakatastrophe findet statt. Die Menschheit befindet sich in einem beängstigenden Rennen gegen die Zeit. Die Regierungen und die großen Konzerne weigern sich, wirksam gegen diese Bedrohungen zu handeln. Profite und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit gehen vor. Mit dem Wirtschaftsgeographen Christian Zellersprechen wir darüber, warum es eine Revolution für das Klima und eine ökosozialistische Alternative braucht.

In this episode of Nice To Meet You, I highlight previous episodes focusing on environmentalism. I give some tips from my friend Gabby about what we can do from our homes in order to be more environmentally conscious. The Science Panel (Episode P004), consisting of Shane (003), Tony (027) and Caitlin (009), talks about microplastics and how depressing learning about what exactly was happening to our environment was. Alisha (090) shares her current project, a documentary about the geographical history of DC and how her mentors helped her understand how the Anacostia River ended up this way. Emma (070) tells me how much she learned about environmentalism in the last year working for Earth Conservation Corps and how she’s changed her own life to try and be more sustainable.

The Green New Deal proposed by New York rookie U.S. House of Representatives member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Massachusetts Senator Ed Markey. The Green New Deal would mean, among other radical changes to government and way of life in the U.S., an end to the airline industry and to flight.  Guest: Dr. Patrick Moore a.k.a. “The Sensible Environmentalist,” Founder and former president of Greenpeace, now Ecosense .me; Author of ‘Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout,' Public speaker on environmental, energy and resources issues See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

America’s “environmental prophet,” Henry David Thoreau, set out for a simpler, more mindful, and more deeply lived life on Walden Pond on July 4th, 1845. The date is important, for the book is another Declaration of Independence: an effort to unshackle America from the consumerism, competitiveness, and dishonesty that created a new nation without reaching true freedom and equality. Thoreau’s book is as much about how to live a better, simpler life, as it is about the right way of settling a continent stolen from Native peoples and aided by the moral sin of slavery. It is a deeply philosophical book about making sense of one’s circumstances, taking control of one’s life, and reckoning with the temptation of living up to  the expectations of others. I spoke with Benjamin Reiss, Professor of English at Emory University and author of Wild Nights: How Taming Sleep Created our Restless World, about Walden’s continued significance, how to read philosophically, and – yes, I did ask – how to get a good night’s sleep.

They may not be printed in the menu, but many are in your food.These are a few of the literally millions of pounds of approved synthetic substances dumped into the environment every day, not just in the US but around the world. They seep into our water supply, are carried thousands of miles by wind and rain from the site of application, remain potent long after they are deposited, and constitute, in the words of one scientist, "biologic death bombs with a delayed time fuse and which may prove to be, in the long run, as dangerous to the existence of mankind as the arsenal of atom bombs.†? All of these poisons are sanctioned--or in some cases, ignored--by the EPA.
