Welcome to “How To Save The World” the final episode of Ok, Doomer!, the podcast series by The European Leadership Network's (ELN) New European Voices on Existential Risk (NEVER) network. Hosted by the ELN's Policy and Impact Director, Jane Kinninmont, and Project and Communications Coordinator, Edan Simpson, this episode takes a step back to assess what we've learned about existential and global catastrophic risks in previous episodes and what comes next.In “What's the Problem?”, Jane and Edan wrap up the series by reflecting on key themes, including the importance of long-term planning and collaboration across different sectors and countries.We then turn to Edan's “How To Fix It” panel, featuring Sophie Howe, the former Future Generations Commissioner for Wales, dubbed by the UK's Guardian newspaper as “the world's first minister for the unborn” Sophie served as the Welsh Government's first-ever Future Generations Commissioner. Her role gave her a statutory obligation to serve as “the guardian of the interests of future generations in Wales” and to provide guidance and advice to the government and public bodies in Wales when making decisions to ensure that they think about the effects on people in the future as well as now.We are also joined by NEVER member Florian Ulrich Jehn. Floria is a Senior Researcher in Environmental Science at AllFed (Alliance to Feed the Earth in Disasters ) where they focus on food security, climate, and civilisational resilience. Florian is passionate about existential risk education and runs a newsletter, “Existential Crunch”, that serves as a living literature review on the topic.Our third and final guest is NEVER member Nadine Andersen, who works as a Research Assistant at the SIPRI Climate Change and Risk Programme. She previously worked with UNDP, UNOPS, and IUCN, and her projects included addressing environment and resilience issues in Kenya, empowering youth for nature conservation in Sri Lanka, and planning an international workshop on hydro-diplomacy in Thailand.The panel discusses their own contributions to the field of existential risk mitigation, what work is being undertaken at the local, national, and international levels, and the importance of citizen involvement in making long-term policy decisions and ensuring that policymakers create the appropriate governance structures to properly tackle existential and global catastrophic risks.In this episode's Turn Back The Clock segment, Jane is joined by historian Frank Gavin, who takes us back to the early days of the nuclear non-proliferation movement. Frank explains how, in the 1960s, the world was deeply pessimistic about the ability to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons. Yet, against the odds, the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) was established, a major success in reducing the global nuclear threat. This historical perspective offers a lesson in how bold, coordinated action can lead to breakthroughs, even in times of intense geopolitical tension. Frank also discusses parallels between the Cold War nuclear crisis and today's challenges, such as AI and climate change, emphasising the importance of international cooperation.In The Debrief, Jane and Edan reflect on the key takeaways from the series, emphasising the power of collective action and long-term thinking. They touch on the optimism shared by panellists like Sophie Howe, who called for "making long-term governance sexy," and how common sense should be at the heart of addressing global risks. They also revisit the importance of democratic engagement, ensuring that the public is part of the conversation on existential risks. Finally, they highlight Frank Gavin's powerful reminder that history has shown us that, with enough effort, we can pull back from the brink of...

Hi #smartcommunity friends! Welcome to the Summer Series here on the Smart Community Podcast. As you know, we're taking a little break from new content over the Australian summer holidays, and instead we are sharing the replays of a few of our all time favourite episodes. This week we're sharing my interview with Katie Patrick, from way back in Episode 234, which was released in June 2021. Katie is an environmental engineer, software designer, author and co-founder of the two environmental database startups Energy Lollipop and Urban Canopy. In this episode of the Smart Community Podcast we begin our conversation by Katie telling us about her background as an environmental engineer, how she transitioned to running her own publishing company to now her own startups. Katie then shares with us what a Smart Community is to her and her passion for environmental data. We then talk more about environmental data and how it can help drive change in human behaviour before Katie talks about her interest in behavioural psychology. Katie then shares with us her two startups and the work they are involved in and we talk about her transition from a more conventional style of work to the startup space, before discussing personality types and the value different personalities can bring to an organisation. We talk about the basis of Katie's book “How To Save The World'' and how important it was for Katie to deliver her complex messages in the book in a readable way to her audience. We finish our conversation discussing the emerging trends of granular data and data-to-data comparisons. One recent project of Katie's that has happened since this interview is the Sustainability Street masterclass she's been running, which is about how to gamify neighbourhood decarbonisation. We'll pop a link in the show notes if you want to check that out. And of course we will be sure to get Katie back on the show in the new year for a full update about what she has been up to since we recorded this episode and how our thinking has progressed since our conversation. But in the meantime, as always we hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed making it!

Gastón Tenemabum nos presenta un documental que lo emocionó: "How To Save The World", el cual cuenta como se creó la reconocida organización Greenpeace.

Wait. Why are we here? What are we saving the world from? Join Waveney and Tim as they delve into the reasons behind the reasons to find out why (and how) we have ended up in the 21st Century eating up the planet that supports us.It's our first episode of season two so we are also asking ourselves: Why are we here, doing this podcast? Turns out there are lots of reasons! And what can you, dear listener, expect to get out of it? Connecting with your power to make a difference.Referencing work of Professor Nate Hagen; Jarred Diamond and Darrin Qualman, we look at the real reasons human activity is changing the climate and causing extinctions and the good news is - We don't think it's because we are dicks.Waveney argues that we have superpowers ‘indistinguishable from magic.' And that we are simply using those superpowers just like any organism would. We use them in the service of the primal urge to grow, conserve our own energy and to multiply. Nothing on Earth can out compete or even curb us (with the notable exception of the virus). So the big question is; Is it feasible to imagine that we might be able to curb ourselves?Links and StatsSpeaking of your power, did you know that, along with all humans alive today, you have two special superpowers?

Katie Patrick is an amazing woman. While she humbly describes herself as an environmental engineer, author, and "Fitbit for the Planet" designer, I would call her a jack of all trades -- a renaissance woman on a mission to save the world.  Katie is the founder of Urban Canopy,  Hello World Labs, and most recently the author of one of my new favorite books, "How To Save The World!"  In this episode we chat about: - Why Katie decided to close down Australia's largest VC-funded environmental media company, Green Pages (a business she founded and had been running for 7 years) to launch Hello World Labs, a creative technology lab. - The Value Action Gap (one the biggest mistake social entrepreneurs make when they’re launching a new environmental or social project/business).- The role and importance of social comparison and behavior change in regards to sustainable living.- How to make REAL and measurable changes when it comes to saving our planet.- The importance of utilizing technology when it comes to solving complex environmental issues. - How to find your creative genius zone and why it matters.- Her entrepreneurial challenges over the years.- The challenges she’s faced as a single parent while following her dream to make a difference in our world. - And so much more! Truly this was such an amazing conversation and one I know you'll really enjoy. Happy listening!  Connect with Katie Patrick: Instagram Facebook Twitter YouTube

Welcome to the fifth and final episode of our Summer Series (Winter Warmies!) Throughout all of January, we’ll be sharing some of your favourite episodes from 2019, to keep you company on the beach (or slopes!) Often on the podcast we dance around the topic of technology - usually viewing it as something that gets in the way of our efforts to slow down and live a more mindful, sustainable life. But what if we embraced technology and viewed it as the greatest opportunity we have to change (or maybe even save) the world? In this week’s episode Brooke chats with Katie Patrick, an environmental engineer and designer who applies data-driven, gamification, and behaviour-change techniques to solve the world’s environmental problems. Katie brings with her a completely new perspective on what it’s going to take to change the world, and it’s a refreshing, hope-filled, imagination-fuelled joy to listen to. Brooke and Katie talk about the important relationship between slowing down, getting creative and making an impact on the world, as well as what letting go of the idea of goals and success has done to Katie’s own life. Katie also shares how imagination and day dreaming might just hold the key to getting more people to care about the planet, and why we need to shift the current narrative away from doom and gloom, to one of opportunity and hope.   Questions featured in this episode:  What role does optimism play in our ability to change the world? Why do we need to slow down in order to access our creative potential? If we lead busy, full lives, how can we make space and time for creativity, particularly when it feels like a ‘nice to have’ rather than a necessity? What’s the link between optimism and taking action? Why do you think the current environmental, climate crisis messaging is falling flat for so many people? What can we do to change it?

Dave Pollard, author of the How To Save The World blog, joins me in an episode dedicated to our Culture of Dependency and how our civilization has evolved into a highly complex system that lacks the resilience to handle the multiple crises that we now face. This episode examines the structure of our complex society and how it has been a product of an era of abundant cheap energy (ie. petroleum oil). We also discuss overshoot and what that means to future societies. Along those same lines we talk about a transition to steady-state economics (while hashing out the probability of it ever being implemented). A truly enjoyable guest and a great episode.
