Many people spend hours on their lawns, running the sprinklers, pouring on the “weed and feed”, driving large riding mowers back and forth and using another noisy machine to makes the edges perfect. Why do we have an obsession with lawns? Have we thought about how lawns and manicured yards do great harm to biodiversity and to the natural ecology of the Earth, and contribute to climate change? In this program, conservation educator, photographer and author Danae Wolfe challenges us to instead value wilder natural landscapes that support all forms of life. Wolfe's book is Grass Isn't Greener, The Everyday Conservationist's Guide to Bringing Nature to Your Yard.
The climate crisis is also a health crisis. Rising temperatures and extreme weather events are driving more heat-related deaths, spreading vector-borne diseases, and damaging mental health – impacts that fall hardest on the most vulnerable communities. Framing climate change through the lens of health makes it personal – and the solutions preventative. Clean energy doesn't just cut carbon; it saves lives by cleaning the air we breathe. Greener cities reduce emissions, protect us from heatwaves, and support our wellbeing. In this episode, James and Daisy explore the urgent connections between climate change and health. How is our health already being affected? How can health risks drive climate action? And what solutions offer the greatest benefits for both people and planet? SOME RECOMMENDATIONS: Outrage + Optimism (2025) – A fantastic podcast episode from Christiana Figueres and Paul Dickinson exploring why health must be central to climate communication. They are joined by Julia Gillard, Chair of the Wellcome Trust. Force of Nature – Founded by former Fossil vs Future guest, Clover Hogan, this non-profit provides mental health resources and research on the rise of eco-anxiety.OTHER ADVOCATES AND RESOURCES:Our World in Data (2024) – “Almost no one has “heat” or “cold” written on their death certificate, but sub-optimal temperatures lead to a large number of premature deaths.”EAT-Lancet Commission (2019) – Proposes a global planetary health diet that is healthy for both people and planet. NY Times (2025) – The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) will stop funding research on the health effects of climate change.NY Times (2025) – With 59% of its revenue coming from federal and external sponsors, Harvard's School of Public Health faces what has been called an “existential crisis.”Smart Surfaces Coalition – Promotes the adoption of green, porous, and reflective surfaces to enable cities to decrease urban heat, save money, reduce flooding risk, and strengthen urban liveability, resilience, and equity.City of Barcelona – Offers a publicly available map of climate shelters across the city. Wellcome – Showcases climate solutions with health co-benefits, such as protecting forests in Indonesia by meeting community needs. CNN (2023) – Singapore's founding prime minister, Lee Kuan Yew, once called air conditioning “the greatest invention of the 20th century” and credited it for helping to transform the island. Verv – An AI-based smart home product that allows remote control of HVAC units, switching to standby, setting temperature points, and programming set points.NHS & UNHSA (2025) – Partnered with the UK Met Office to integrate climate science and modelling into health impact assessments and launch an impact-based Weather-Health Alerting System.SOME FACTS: WHO (2023): 37% of heat-related deaths can be linked to human-induced climate change, and heat-related deaths among people over 65 have risen by 70% in just the last two decades.Imperial (2020): Changing temperature and rainfall across Africa could increase yellow fever deaths by up to 25% by 2050.UNEP (2023): Air pollution is the greatest environmental threat to public health globally and accounts for more than 8 million premature deaths every year.The Lancet (2021): A survey of 10,000 young people (aged 16-25 years) in 10 countries found that 59% were “very or extremely worried” about climate change, and 84% were at least moderately worried. LSE (2024): The UK experienced five heatwave periods during summer 2022 with record-breaking temperatures of over 40°C in England.NHS: During summer 2022's record breaking temperatures, England experienced an estimated 2,803 excess deaths.World Bank (2024): A changing climate could lead to excess health costs in low- and middle-income countries of at least US$21 trillion by 2050, equivalent to approximately 1.3% of their projected GDP.Thank you for listening!

The question comes up constantly - in podcast interviews, on Collab group calls, and in emails from listeners. "What if the grass isn't greener on the other side?"It's tied to this idea that maybe being miserable at work is just what it means to be an adult with a job. Maybe every workplace is toxic. Maybe no one really likes what they do. You'll even hear people outside the law say things like "Well, no one likes their job."There's something almost protective about believing this. If you don't believe it will be better elsewhere, it's easier to keep doing the thing you're doing, even if the thing that you're doing is painful and not great for your mental and physical and emotional well-being.But after six years of interviewing former lawyers, I can tell you the grass really is greener.See show notes at formerlawyer.com/280
In this episode, we spoke with Richard Savoie, Co-founder and CEO of Adiona Tech, about how AI and logistics software are accelerating the transition to smarter, greener cities. Richard shared his journey from medical devices to sustainable logistics, and how Adiona is helping global enterprises—from Coca-Cola to Australia Post—optimize fleets, cut emissions, and prepare for an electric and autonomous future. We explored why electrification requires new software, how AI digital twins reduce risk, and how sustainability can become a competitive advantage in logistics. Key Insights: • AI-powered fleet optimization: Adiona uses digital twins and AI simulations to boost vehicle utilization from ~60% toward 100%, maximizing assets while reducing costs and emissions. • Bridging electrification gaps: EVs and cargo bikes behave differently than diesel fleets, and Adiona's software closes that gap, making sustainable adoption practical and profitable. • Scalable impact: Partnerships with PepsiCo and Australia Post demonstrate measurable reductions in emissions and logistics costs, while improving customer retention. • Sustainability as strategy: Companies are turning emissions reporting into a competitive edge, with leaders like PepsiCo using low-carbon fleets to differentiate their brand and win contracts. • Future-ready logistics: We discussed autonomous vehicles, sidewalk robots, and hybrid delivery networks that will reshape how goods move through cities.

Tea and coffee. Millennia-old drinks that fuel our mornings and shape our cultures. But behind every steaming cup lies a journey across continents, a web of farms and workers, and a pretty hefty environmental tab. Which one leaves the bigger footprint, and how can we shrink it? We trace their histories, their impact, and some things we can do to brew a better future.

Insect photographer/advocate Danae Wolfe (of ChasingBugs.com) talks with me about amazing insects (like the spiders, butterflies, moths, and fireflies that I saw in the Appalachia mountains) and why they and their habitats are deserving of our protection, instead of our disdain, zappers, and poisons. We discuss cool tips in her new book "Grass Isn't Greener" to be wildlife-friendly in our greenspaces/ yards (as insect populations are declining and need our help), like by: passing on the pesticides, lessening our lawn, leaving the leaves, planting native plants, flipping the switch on lighting, and avoiding fake Halloween spiderweb mesh yard decorations (go for real spiderwebs). Danae and I also critique some militaristic and negative language common in demonizing insects, and I explain why I try to avoid saying "bugs" (as in 'they bug me'). She also tells me how to avoid being bitten when outdoors. In this 47-minute "In Tune to Nature" podcast, you'll learn a lot about insects (and coexisting with them) from the wealth of experience and enthusiasm Danae Wolfe has an artist and conservationist.

Sounds like the overlapping songs of birds can speak volumes about the biodiversity in an ecosystem, and now scientists are looking to use the tiny sounds made by earthworms, ants, and voles to study the health of soils. Also, "depaving parties" of volunteers with sledgehammers are turning paved yards into pollinator havens and green space. That can help reduce climate impacts from extreme heat and flooding. Plus -- a scientist who rappels down cliffs to hand-pollinate endangered plants. A vine that mimics the leaves of nearby species. Rice that crowds out strangers but leaves room for the roots of relatives. The book “The Light Eaters” tackles big questions of plant intelligence, consciousness, and communication. -- Know someone who might be interested in a Living on Earth internship this fall?

We love the smell of fresh laundry – but at what cost? In Episode Four of our Greener Living series, we unpack how our quest for "clean" has been shaped by marketing, not necessity – and how it's filling our air, water, and bodies with microplastics and nasty chemicals. The good news? A few simple changes can lighten the load.

I'm delighted to be joined by Danae Wolfe author of Grass Isn't Greener: The Everyday Conservationist's Guide to Bringing Nature to your Yard & the Founder of Chasing Bugs.Danae is a kindred spirit, someone who has loved being immersed in nature all her life, & compelled to seek ways to inspire others to overcome climate doomerism & remember to look for the joy, awe & wonder that exists outside our own back door. Danae reminds us that the small things we do matter, with 40 million acres of lawn in the USA & a higher use of pesticides per acre in domestic settings than agricultural applications, the solution & power to drive a paradigm shift in our relationship & responsibility for nature and biodiversity is truly in our own hands & closer to home than we might have imagined. This is a conversation about taking back our power, in realising that with simple steps & small changes we can create the momentum for effective change. As we remember that we are a part of nature, not apart from it & that owning land is a privilege that comes with responsibility to care for more than just ourselves & what we desire. We need to steward the land, the waters & the air, realising that what we do has an impact but that, that impact can be positive & contribute in ways that leave us & the world richer. Learn more about DanaeDanae Wolfe is a conservation educator, award winning macro insect photographer, and author dedicated to reshaping the way we see and interact with the natural world. With over two decades of experience in conservation storytelling and insect photography, Danae's work has been featured in national media and environmental education initiatives. She is passionate about inspiring curiosity, fostering appreciation for biodiversity, and challenging traditional views of beauty in nature. Grass Isn't Greener is a timely and thought-provoking exploration of how our obsession with manicured lawns and traditional landscaping contribute to climate change and harm biodiversity - and what we can do about it. Rooted in twenty practical steps that anyone can take starting today, Grass Isn't Greener demonstrates how small changes in your yard or garden can create lasting impact for the planet: from leaving your leaves to selecting eco-friendly holiday decorations; from eliminating light pollution to attracting wildlife; from saving seeds to devoting even a small patch of lawn to native plants. With easy-to-follow advice and real-life examples it is a resource for anyone looking for little ways to make a big difference—and to have fun doing it.

Who's a good boy? We love our pets (how could we not?) – and they love us back. But the way we care for our furry companions says a lot about how we consume, what we value, and the systems we're part of. In Episode Three, we reveal the environmental pawprint of having pets and what it can teach us about ourselves. Not to worry though – we're still allowed to have nice things, including pets.
The Town of Mount Pleasant, SC, has launched an exciting new initiative: a voluntary residential environmental program! John Farrell, Environmental TMDL Manager for the Town of Mount Pleasant explains that this program aims to inspire Mount Pleasant residents to embrace more environmentally friendly practices at home. Its development follows the success of the town's Environmental Guidelines for Commercial Development, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability across all sectors. This program offers a variety of "green" improvements and options for residential projects. Many local HOAs, including Belle Hall and Seaside Farms, along with the historic Old Village, have already successfully implemented these eco-conscious techniques. While each technique offers unique advantages, all are designed with environmental stewardship in mind. Benefits range from enhanced aesthetic beauty and potential cost savings to attracting local wildlife and diverse bird species – truly a host of upsides to adopting an environmentally friendly approach! Tune in to this episode to learn more about the positive environmental impact of these programs and the various initiatives Mount Pleasant is pursuing for both its residents and the environment.
Seeing a paper belly band, instead of plastic shrink wrap, around the decks of cards in Isle of Night from Red Raven Games made me realise that now might be the time to write again about sustainability and eco-friendliness in the board game hobby. Thinking back over the last few months, it feels as if publishers and players alike have started thinking more about making games greener. So in this article, I am looking at where the industry stands today.Read the full topic discussion article here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/08/05/shelf-to-soil-how-board-games-are-getting-greener-topic-discussion/Useful LinksIsle of Night review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/07/19/isle-of-night-saturday-review/Red Raven Games: https://www.redravengames.com/Stonemaier Games: https://stonemaiergames.com/Are Our Games Eco-Friendly?

Cement pretty much holds the modern world together. The amount of cement required to create our infrastructure is almost incomprehensible. By weight, humanity consumes more cement than food, about 3 pounds per person per day. The cement industry produces around eight percent of global CO2 emissions, which is more than the aviation industry. So, if […]
Since I have deviated recently from the academic origins of the archetype of the Green Man, I decide to summarize the rest of the book I had been following, The Quest for the Green Man. I also point out that by researching him, and his consort, the Green Woman, I have been finding more and more Green humans who have devoted their lives to the defense of nature and exemplify a return to a Greener way of living. I take you with me to the Rio Claro Natural Reserve, which we visited as prompted by my sister, a Green Woman herself, who runs a sanctuary for abandoned dogs. Rio Claro is a majestic rainforest where a clear, powerful river is The Boss, whose owner is a real-life Green Man. We learn about his journey as an environmental activist, and about his daughter, who also cared passionately for nature. Water rafting down rapids and trekking the forest are the first adventures I share with you, and spelunking will be the topic of the next episode. Come follow me to the Rio Claro Basin surrounded by an Enchanted Forest, where the question voiced in the title of this episode becomes unavoidable.

As we continue our series on climate change, today we talk about how that after more than a decade of Sino-US collaboration, a trend called “nearly zero-energy tech” is transforming China's building sector into a green-energy model for climate progress.
Over the weekend, Anthony thought long and hard about LeBron James' options *if* James actually wants out. He asked around about the situation, too, and the product wound up being a length article that outlined why he thinks James' and the Lakers' best option is just to move forward together. Since writing the article, he's also heard why there might be a riff between James and the Lakers, and where it stemmed from. So he offers that additional context, as well.

Send me a messageAir freight has long been the wild west of logistics, complex, opaque, and often wasteful. In this episode, I sat down with Chris Condon, founder and CEO of Aircon and the mind behind Captain Cargo, to unpack how AI and automation are reshaping air freight for the better.Chris brings decades of freight forwarding experience and has built a platform specifically to help small and mid-sized freight forwarders compete with global giants. We explore why air freight isn't just for emergencies, how faster quoting often matters more than faster transit, and how real-time exception management is the missing piece for most operators.We also dig into sustainability. Chris explains how smarter consolidation and capacity optimisation, enabled by predictive analytics, can reduce unused cargo space and avoid unnecessary flights. In a sector where emissions are high and transparency is low, that matters.This isn't just about tech for tech's sake. It's about giving operators the tools to retain customers, improve margins, and respond to disruption, without losing control to the big players.If you're in logistics, supply chain management, or sustainability and you want to understand where AI is actuallydelivering value in freight, this one's well worth a listen.
