Today on the show is the first and second most popular guest to date - Cameron Tonkinwise. Making his third appearance, Cameron's previous episodes - number 9 and 40 - equated to a gigantic jump in listenership as well as the number of places the show was getting picked up in. That I think says everything about Cameron - his career and work to date across design, academia and in practice is both unique and special. I've had the great pleasure and privilege to work a lot with Cameron over the last eight year since I first accosted him in a laneway at a conference, and few have been as influential on the way I think about the world and approach my work.Cameron is a design professor at the University of Technology in Sydney, and is an international expert in design studies and transition design. He writes and speaks extensively on the power of design to drive systems-level change to achieve more sustainable and equitable futures. I've seen firsthand how influential and impactful he is in workplaces as well as when he's speaking and presenting at different events and conferences.I wanted to get Cameron back on the show as recently we held a Finding Nature supper club event exploring the issues and challenges of broad calls for systems change. So much in our society and economy requires substantial change - from our caring economy to decarbonisation and climate risk-driven adaptation to demeaning attitudes to women and a political economy dependent on destruction-inducing consumption of all things, all the time. This event explored how to even approach that topic - what does systems change even mean, how do you start, how do you try to do it. We chat about what came up that night, as well getting into case studies of work he and we have done seeking to be these system change influencers and advocates, the pitfalls and perils, as well as the surprising insights and glimpses of what really is possible.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram.Today's show is delivered with Reposit Power.

Licia Heath is the CEO of Women for Election and she's on the show today to talk many things politics, women in politics and the future of women in politics. Despite being in a context where slowly slowly incrementalism at best seems to be the political program at the moment - from a middling 2035 emissions target to housing to gender violence to tax reform to indicating support for the theft of creative intellectual property, it can be difficult to remember that just six years ago the federal political landscape was radically different to what we see today. Licia's theory of change for our political system lies in changing the individual faces of the people who sit at all three levels of government, and she's here today to share much more about this.When I first came across Women for Election and Licia, I was reminded about one of my favourite documentaries - Knock Down the House. That documentary, set in the now-utopian-level times of 2018 follows four women seeking Democratic Party pre-selection for their congressional district elections at the US midterms. The documentary goes behind the scenes in how grassroots campaigning and the creation of new power in communities is possible, away from the vested interests of existing politicians and a two party system that offered little to no chance of delivering much needed structural reform in many areas of our society and economy. I love the potential that new power is possible just by showing up, by getting involved and being active in and with others nearby - not the inaccessible over there toxicity politicians is easily portrayed and perceived as. With that in mind, I wanted to get Licia on, and this didn't disappoint.We cover the origins and evolution of Women for Election, the particular barriers and challenges different groups of women face in pursuing representation, the importance of civility and custodianship as virtues to help drive change, and Licia's own remarkable transformation from 20 year finance professional to the ups and downs of re-making her career, future and identity. This episode has something for everyone, but what has stayed with me since is the vital role of just showing up, being involved and having the willingness to put your hand up and take on a role you never thought was possible, and what's possible once you do accept that role.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram.Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

This week on the show I have the sister and brother duo Emily and Jack Rowland. Individually Emily and Jack are up to vital work across ocean conservation, plastics eradication, food system revitalisation and equitable health care outcomes, but together they create a dynamic and diverse way of being and doing in the world that I wanted to bring onto the show. One thing I'm conscious of with this show is the age of the guests that I have on - leaning towards speaking with and learning from experts in the middle or second halves of their careers who've worked for decades in their field. Young people - both on this show and in just about every other forum - are usually not thought about for inclusion or simply dismissed as too idealistic, too naive and with too little real world experience to offer valuable insights and lessons. In a world where most things seems to be falling apart, perhaps leaning on that established order is a mistake in itself. More of what's been occurring probably means more of what we've got now.In a week where a treacherous decision to approve a carbon bomb project out til 2070 was followed up by a doomish explanation of the future we're sleepwalking into, the role and necessity of including young people's voices feels essential. Emily and Jack are both in their early 20s, but combine diverse lived experiences across multiple countries with their ongoing studies and many and varied community and organisational commitments to offer a perspective on where young people today are, what motivates them, how they differ from those who've come before them but also the base human instincts to belong, to participate and to be of service.Emily's environmental advocacy is born from a deep connection to place and country. She's involved with organisations like Regen Sydney and Who Does the Dishes, and the experiences she had growing up in both Sydney and Las Vegas have shaped her approach to story telling, showing up and seeking change. For Jack, a life changing health diagnosis at 12 years of age changed everything for him, and over time as he's come to reckon with the realities of that diagnosis and he's developed a passion and capability in connecting one person's health and wellbeing into a broader system that can bias, discriminate against and exclude many.This was such an incredibly valuable conversation for me. When was the last time I'd sat down with a couple of younger people and really spoke with and listened to them? Embarrassingly, I can't remember. Their vibrancy and optimism was evident, still to be tarnished or harmed repetitively by a system that seems intent on maintaining vested interests and enabling captured power dynamics. In a week when the national climate risk assessment was released, and I've been thinking a lot about the world I've brought my own child into, young people not only deserve but need to be included in the way decisions are made. Emily and Jack are examples of the transformative potential of new perspectives, fresh thinking and yet to become bitter and twisted people.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today on the show I have Elaine Johnson - a leading landowner advocate and environment and climate lawyer who's led some of the most consequential cases against fossil fuel expansion in this state. Her work in and with communities who are opposing the deleterious local impacts of more pollution and being able to frame that within a larger climate change debate is truly remarkable and vital work. In light of the International Court of Justice's advisory opinion in July regarding the new considerations governments are now supposed to take regarding fossil fuel projects whether that's Greenfield approvals or expanding existing sites, there is greater optimism and hope that the law can become an effective tool in the fight against vested polluters and captured governments. And let's not forget that Australia was one of a few nations who opposed this case along with the USA, China and Saudi Arabia, while our government has also fought domestically against the idea it has a duty of care to both young people and Torres Strait Islanders who will be most affected by a new climate reality or already are losing Country and Culture to rising seas and bigger storms.Elaine is on the show to get into many areas of legal practice and strategy regarding the work she's done and to offer insights into the trajectory of how courts will and could rule for healthier and more just futures. The rapid escalation in climate litigation cases globally and here in Australia is a phenomenon I wanted to better understand, and why Australia is one of the leading innovators in this domain. I also wanted to explore and understand the specific cases and implications of different cases Elaine has worked on, and where this may and hopefully is going.I really do mean it when I say that I think law is the most innovative part of the climate action system at the moment, and Elaine and her team are at the centre of that in this country. To learn more about Elaine's work, head to Johnson Legal and follow her on LinkedIn. Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's episode is a different one and coincides wth the beginning of Spring here in the Southern Hemisphere. Spring is a time of renewal, rebirth and new beginnings. From ecosystems and landscapes bursting with new life to warmer days and longer daylight hours, the potential of spring rings eternal. I wanted to do this as so many guests have spoken about pivotal moments in their lives that represent these periods of new growth and changed trajectories, and I wanted to bring that to you today to remind us all that we don't need to wait til January 1, or worse, a state of desperation to make changes in our life. Change and action are available to all of us right now.Personally I'm trying to use this spring as a launching pad for what I'm doing with Finding Nature - from building out some programs for organisations through to the project of bringing this show to video. Beyond that though, I'm hoping to use these four months before the end of the year as a period of transition and growth in other aspects of my life from health and movement to finance and money to relationships and fatherhood. I was reminded putting this together - and hopefully you are too - that the ability to learn from others who've gone through their own experiences are all around us to relate to, to learn from and hopefully to take suggestions and action into our own lives.I really enjoyed going into the show catalogue and putting this together. Every guest today I learnt from the first time around and I have again, and I hope you find something in this episode to help you with what you're trying to get done and move towards at the moment. If you enjoy any of the snippets from this show, I've linked all of the full episodes in the show notes so you can go listen to the whole thing from there.Discovering Real Meaning In The Dismantling: Nadya Hutagalung Wants You To Find ContentmentReaching for What's Possible - Emma Pocock's Vision for Sport as a Vehicle for ChangeBuilding and Maintaining A Body To Live, Work & Play In with Dr John PanagopoulosInternal Integration, External Actualisation - Mark Rowland is Here NowTammi Miller Will See You Now: Work Addiction, Identity and The Perils of Pursuing It AllStart Again - Ben Rennie Wants You to Know It's Your Time to Build Creative Confidence and Be The Person You Dream of BeingKaylene Langford Wants You To Start Now - The Power of Creation and Owning Your FreedomSupport the Finding Nature Go HalfCut 2025 campaign!Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Send me a messageThanks for listening.

I'm joined on the show today by Surya Deva. He's a Professor at the Macquarie Law School, where he's also the Director of the Environmental Law Research Centre and Business & Human Rights Justice Lab. Surya is also part way through his first term period as the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Development. He's served as a member of the UN's Working Group on Business and Human Rights, he's published extensively and advised UN agencies, governments, corporations, trade union and civil society organisations.I've been hoping to get Surya on for most of the year after coming across his work on the rights of children and future generations. He has made an eloquent case for the way decisions today could and probably should be accounting for the future. This resonated strongly as someone who works in climate adaptation on a day to day basis and the way choices can be expanded or limited by the constraints of time in decision making. If we limit thinking to only this quarter or this year to work on a topic as broad and complex as climate adaptation, then the types of activities that are deliverable are likely narrow and inadequate structurally. By extending the time by which action could be taken - ten years, fifty years, five hundred years, that creates new frames and perspectives, making what previously seemed implausible plausible and helps focus action in that next quarter or year in a bigger and more meaningful context. Surya's work helped to crystallise some of my thinking, and the way he is able to describe and make practical decision making in multi-faceted, interconnected contexts has been valuable.We chat about a lot here, but sitting at the heart of our conversation is Surya's reimagined vision for the role of the right to development, and his perspectives on a planet-centred, relationship-driven world where we see ourselves as a part of something, not seperate to it. We chat about his critiques of voluntary human rights due diligence in corporate settings, the role of remediation and transformation as strategic pillars of change and his views on mindsets, leadership and what we need next to make some big shifts in our society.I have enormous regard for Surya, his work and the way he approaches it. I always learn so much spending time with him, and I hope that's what you get today.Support the Finding Nature Go HalfCut 2025 campaign!Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

John Vaillant is today's guest, and this was a very special conversation that sat within a few days of spending a lot of time together and riffing on everything from new types of fires to debating the merits and qualities of RM Williams or Blundstone boots. John is a renowned author and writer, who for over thirty years has plied his trade in book writing and journalism. His narrative non fiction book The Tiger was an international best seller and included in GQ's 50 best books of the 21st century. Almost all of our conversation today though centres on his most recent book, Fire Weather: A True Story from a Hotter World. It's one of the very best books I've ever read, but don't take it from me - Fire Weather won a Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction, was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, while it was named one of the best books of 2023 by the New York Times, The Washington Post, The New Yorker, TIME, National Public Radio, Slate, and Smithsonian.John was recently in town for a relatively short tour and I had the great pleasure of meeting him, hanging out and introducing him to a group of financial service employees too. As so much of the Northern Hemisphere continues to burn in yet another record breaking fire season, John's recollection of a gigantic fire in Fort McMurray in northern Canada in 2016 brings to life the horror and terror of what bigger, faster, more powerful and frankly, just plain new, fire systems mean for our and the planet's future. Through this book John has found himself a popular go-to for media outlets around the world who are looking to better understand what record breaking after unprecedented fire means, how they form and where we're headed.Here in Australia we are sadly all too familiar with the devastating effects of massive fires - but what if that is just the beginning of what is to come? How can we imagine a fire season worse than 2019/20? If wealthy parts of Los Angeles can be wiped off the map, where's safe? If the climate is changing everywhere to create new conditions for fire, then perhaps we need to prepare ourselves for not just imagery, but experiences anywhere that look like the pages from the Book of Revelation. This is truly horrifying stuff. I can't imagine the experience of being in or around the type of fire John chronicles in Canada and what we continue to see just about everywhere. But that's part of John's message - we need to work out how to not only imagine the unimaginable, but prepare for it.John's gift is in story telling. Be careful what you wish for though, bringing someone of John's calibre to the realities of a changing climate, what's already happened and where we're headed may be too much to contemplate. Support the Finding Nature Go HalfCut 2025 campaign!Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Speaking of the best in the business, today's guest is Kenneth Roth, a global icon of the human rights movement who perhaps more than just anybody else on this planet has shaped and influenced the defence and promotion of human rights everywhere. Ken was the Executive Director of Human Rights Watch from 1993 when the organisation had around 50 staff until he stepped down from this post thirty years later with over 500 people in the team and located in over 100 countries. Ken is a doyen of human rights work, and for over thirty years he and his team have taken meaningful action around the world to intervene on violations people and communities experienced, as well as spearheaded systemic reform at the United Nations and in many legislatures around the world.Ken joined the show as part of his tour to Australia to speak about his remarkable book Righting Wrongs; Three Decades on the Front Lines Battling Abusive Governments. It's part memoir, part historical account of the human rights movement, and part change making instructional. It's a must read for any and all people out there who are looking to engage with problems and harms and to develop strategies and tactics in response. It outlines his theory of change and the role of shame, alliance building and deep investigatory undertakings to pinpoint and surface where and how people are being harmed and what could be done to mitigate and remediate these.Ken's trip coincides with a moment of great societal and moral uncertainty - from the Russia Ukraine war, Israel's ongoing campaign in the West Bank, a tumultuous US political context and raging civil war and humanitarian crisis in Sudan. Taking away the legalistic jargon and think tank pontificating, Ken outlines how he and Human Rights Watch have for decades worked to right the wrongs people experience as the result of government and organisational decisions.This chat covers a lot of ground - from the origins and evolution of Human Rights Watch, Ken's observations and experiences of working in and affecting change in China, the US, Israel and many other countries, war crimes and torture, business and human rights, climate change and human rights, while we finish on the lessons and suggestions for those of us who do this work without end no matter the title or level.What's left to say about Ken that hasn't been said? I really hope you enjoy listening to us chat and take away as much as I did.Support the Finding Nature Go HalfCut 2025 campaign!Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Jimmy Stanton-Cooke is on the show this week, and I am so pleased to be bringing you this chat. Already Jimmy has lived the life of a vagabond, a ratbag and a pioneer as well as an agricultural science high school teacher. Few are like him, and to have him on the show today was a long held aspiration and a chance to get beyond the high energy public persona who lived without half of his beard for seven years. Jimmy is certainly a man of infinite vitality and action, but underneath that is a caring, seeking and sensitive man, and this conversation felt special for being able to connect at a far deeper level than what a couple of blokes usually do.Jimmy is half the face, half the creator and half the brains behind HalfCut - an organisation I deeply believe in, am currently raising funds to support and am also a board director on. Jimmy and his partner Jess have grown HalfCut from a moment of desperation into an enterprise that is rejuvenating Country and Culture, but more than that, is upending the power dynamic between white and blak. HalfCut runs on the decisions of those it fundraises and builds new financial models for - like Jimmy and his partner Jess, HalfCut is humble at its core.This chat gets into the mechanics and origins of HalfCut - what it does now and how it does it. Beyond that though this chat is about seeking purpose, connecting to self and others and finding something deep inside. Jimmy opens up in a way I didn't expect but was humbled to be present for. Beyond the surface of all of our individual work in seeking change and being of impact lies deep care, and stories of why that care is so extinguishable despite the barriers and challenges we all face in going about our efforts to being agents of change. Jimmy opens up a lot here and it was a privilege to hold space for something a couple of boys from Sydney's northern suburbs don't do a lot, let alone with microphones in front of us.Jimmy is seeking, and he doesn't do things by half.Support the Finding Nature Go HalfCut 2025 campaign!Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Andy Marlow is on the show today. He's one of Australia's most credentialed and awarded architects and passivhaus designers, and has built a career on the forefront of imagining, designing and creating better places for people who breathe. Andy's career has spanned custom design and built projects on single homes to large commercial projects to civic centre and entire urban renewal projects. There aren't many who've seen as many different projects and contexts than Andy over the last three decades, and who's delivered such a diversity of work with a simple goal in mind - the lowest possible environmental impact for the greatest amount of human benefit.A lot of my days are spent thinking about and trying to decipher the state of housing in this country and its relationship to net zero ambitions and as places of refuge and safety from an increasingly volatile and dangerous climate. I saw that Andy had presented at the latest Australian PassivHaus Conference with - in his words - a rant about the Australian housing market - and I wanted to get him on to get into his thinking in more detail. I knew of Andy's work through our mutual friend Chris Nunn's passivhaus so was confident he'd have plenty to offer, and he sure did. His insights and perspectives from a career on the frontline of better housing are invaluable. He makes clear what's obviously wrong in Australia's housing market - weak enforcement, long lasting legacy issues from defects, a confusing regulatory framework - but Andy also helped me better appreciate the dynamics of a volume builder market that seems to serve almost nobody, the wafer thin margins throughout the industry that imperil all projects and people, and the huge costs of ignoring housing as a health topic. We also get into the five principles of passivhaus, its origins, myths, benefits and progress.More than anything though this is a chat about what we all know needs to change - the housing system from the ground up. From being increasingly inaccessible and unaffordable, the gaps between the present state and what's appropriate for health, comfort, decarbonisation and protection from a changing climate, to the somehow radical idea that governments should be active stewards over ensuring quality housing is upheld as a basic human right that all people should feel secure in. Andy has a clear diagnosis as well as guidance and suggestions on what we can all do and what needs to occur structurally to rectify this. 40 years to get into this dynamic won't be solved overnight, but some heavy lifting is needed sooner rather than later to begin unpicking the mess we're in now.Andy's understanding of how housing in this country works - and doesn't - is relevant to us all. We need new visions, practices and ambitions for how we live, and Andy has them.Check out Andy's work at Envirotecture. Support the Finding Nature Go HalfCut 2025 campaign!Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Alexander Pui returns to the show today to chat all things climate science, climate risks and climate impacts. Alex is an old colleague who's made an indelible mark on my career and it's a pleasure to have him back while he's in town escaping Tokyo's suffering heat. Alex has worked across academia, reinsurance, insurance, banking, consulting and technology, is an adjunct fellow at the university of New South Wales' climate change research centre, a visiting scholar at Kyushu university and completed his phd in applied statistics and flood risk assessment. There are few I've met who are as knowledgable about the intersecting worlds of complex climate science, the attitudes and actions of businesses and the gaps between what needs to be done and what is being done.I wanted to get Alex back on the show to get into some of the detail about what has been happening in the world of climate science over the last 12 months. Unprecedented event after unprecedented event have been occurring globally, but beyond the factoids of headlines and social media skimming, I wanted to explore and better understand the state of the science and what that means for all of us.In this episode we do just that, chatting about his work in seeking to understand the huge leap in global atmospheric temperatures since June 2023, the intersection of economic transition and the physical realities of a new climate, the attitudes of barely committed corporates stepping back from not-nearly enough commitments and the idea and role of micro adaptations to withstand the worst effects when the music stops.Anytime I get into the weeds of the science of climate change I am in both awe and terror. I came away from speaking with Alex both of those, his expertise and clarity are a rare combination. I hope you take something from this.Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Support the Finding Nature Go HalfCut 2025 campaign and come along on 30th July in Sydney. Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Daniel Principe is today's guest, and this is a conversation I've been wanting to have for the entire year, so I'm very pleased to be bringing him onto the show and into your earbuds. I can't overstate just how important and serious the work that Dan does visiting schools day in day out to engage mostly boys on topics of masculinity, responsibility, pornography, identity and countering the onslaught of toxic and unhealthy messages an unfilled and unregulated information system that kids today are exposed to. Dan has spoken in front of 76,000 school kids - 53,000 of which are boys, over 8000 educators and in more than 300 schools all over the country. His work led him to being nominated as a NSW Australian of the Year this year, and he is regularly appearing on TV, radio, podcasts and written media, with appearances on Channel 9 and ABC in just the last fortnight.As someone who's experienced much of what Dan chats with kids around - bullying, peer pressure, risk aggressive behaviours and the power of other people's opinions - I have wanted to chat to Dan properly all year, so to have him on the show and to bring his message to this audience is a genuine pleasure and part of my own efforts to contribute to conversations about healthy behaviours and healthy relationships.Dan and I chat about his experiences in schools, the experiences of parents usually on the Back foot due to our and other government's reticence to do anything about the harms of social media, gambling and porn on every device everywhere, the poisonous influence of social media as a super-charged purveyor of false realities and harmful modelling, our own experiences as kids and adults making sense of our own identities, pain as the only instigator of meaningful and long lasting change and the role of role models. The necessity to support boys in how they develop, grow and evolve is a matter of immense societal importance. Unwell men are more violent, more aggressive, more harmful, more at risk and more likely to become perpetrators of all forms of crime and abuse. Resisting and countering this convenient - requiring time, effort, perseverance, compassion, curiosity and humility, and as a man who's lived through these ages and has firsthand experience of how treacherous a period adolescence can be without appropriate guardrails and help, I've seen and experienced how it can all go wrong not only for the individual but those around them. As a parent to a boy, I need this help myself.Dan is easy to find online and I highly recommend going and watching the episode of Compass on ABC titled Hijacking Adolescence for more of him and to hear the stories and experiences of students, parents and teachers. To learn more about his work head to his website and follow him on instagram.Dan's work is vital. I'm richer for his presence in my life, and I hope you take something from this no matter if you're a parent, a colleague, a partner or a friend.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is Emily M Bender. She was recently in Sydney from Seattle to talk about her new book that she wrote with her co-author Alex Hanna called The AI Con; How to fight big tech's hype and create the future we want. She's a professor of linguistics at the University of Washington and received her PhD from Stanford, Time Magazine included her as one of the 100 most influential people in artificial intelligence globally, has her own fantastic podcast called Mystery AI Hype Theatre 3000 and has been featured in The Guardian, New York Times, Fast Company, The Atlantic and the Financial Times.Emily's work has arrived at a coincidental time for me personally as I feel stuck between the competing interests of faster documenting and faster emailing and faster writing and faster everything with a keyboard - most simply, the alluring optimism of my very own assistant or aid or partner or doer to free me of the banalities of using my brain when that is what my professional career has been entirely about. This set of conveniences hits up against a technology that reminds me in many ways of how fossil fuel companies talk about fossil fuels. Grandiose pretensions that the answer has arrived, that they hold the cure to a life free of burden, inconvenience and effort. Then throw in the gargantuan impacts artificial intelligence has already and will continue to have in terms of carbon emissions - at a time when we have barely zero runway before we cross the 1.5 degree threshold, plus the substantial labour abuse issues and the ways by which AI deployment is super charging the system it learns from and therefore perpetuates bias, discrimination and violence against those already experiencing bias, discrimination and violence. Add in how scams, fraud, deep fake pornography, misinformation and disinformation being accelerated and the big hype machine runs into some legitimate questions of its net benefits and costs.The AI Con brought into a sharp focus the trade offs that need to be considered between whatever immediate personal benefit I think I may be getting against all of the known harms. And that's entirely presuming the technology does what it says, doesn't hallucinate and is built for the context it's being applied to.Emily articulates her critiques with a sharp accuracy and examines the adverse impacts to people in great detail, going beyond the noise and hype and wealth generation potential of the latest technology here to save us from the laborious nature of labour. In this chat we discuss all of this, but also the role of meaning and connection as humans, the history of articifical technology as a concept and also how you can go about becoming more informed and asking the right questions in how you navigate a world where the pressure to keep up is relentless and the fear of falling behind is real.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's show is with Hugh White, one of Australia's most prominent figures on strategic and defence policy, whose career has spanned government and academia. Hugh was a senior advisor to Kim Beazley and Bob Hawke through the 80s and 90s in what was a period of substantial changes for this nation and the way we saw ourselves in the world, before becoming Deputy Secretary for Strategy and Intelligence in the Department of Defence. Hugh has now also spent the best part of two decades in academia, where he is an Emeritus Professor of Strategic Studies at The Australian National University. In that time he's authored 12 books and four quarterly essays, and has written in The Australian, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Saturday Paper. Few in this country hold such a breadth and depth of experience and expertise in how the world operates and Australia's place in it.Hugh's the author of the latest Quarterly Essay titled Hard New World; Our Post-American Future. It's one of the most valuable pieces of writing I've read for a long time on how geopolitics, foreign affairs, defence policy and diplomacy are shaping the world today and finding a way to understand the shifts in behaviour from the US, China, Russia, India and Europe. Hugh's depth of knowledge on history and the clues the past hold to make sense of today was illuminating, and with the seemingly daily chaos and instability of rising conflict right around the world, Hugh's work cuts through to offer a grander story of deeper forces at play.We cover tonnes of territory in this chat. The ongoing conflict in the Middle East, the return of nuclear war as a here and now threat to civilisation, US isolationism, the shifting plates of power in East Asia and Europe, a unipolar world dominated by America's dominance being replaced by a historically normal multipolar world order, Aukus, Australia's denial of reality, climate change and what a new era of strategic policy means and needs in an age of climate breakdown. This was mind expanding for me to be able to put the daily goings on be they wars or climate events or political decisions into a larger frame of context and history.This episode was a remarkable experience for me, I was honoured to spend some time with Hugh and looking forward to more conversations in the future.This quote from former German chancellor in the post World War Two period rings true today - “A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such a way that everyone believes they have the biggest piece.”Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Alex Hillman joins the show today. With the approval of the Woodside North West Shelf approval in recent weeks and the metaphorical fires that's flamed, Alex's visit to Sydney was serendipitous to say the least. He's got 15 years working in the oil and gas sector, including nine in Woodside as their climate change advisor. Now though he the lead oil and gas analyst for the Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility having made the jump from insider to outsider. His work now is focussed on helping institutional investors demand better climate performance from their portfolio companies, all from understanding how financial performance converges with carbon.Alex has a unique and valuable perspective on all things energy transition. Often the work of the sustainability professional is fixated on growing renewables and shifting the electricity system that way. At the other end of the market are the incumbents - oil, gas and coal producers. We chat about how the work of ACCR is focussed on detailed analysis of financial performance, business plans, economic trends and the supply and demand of fossil fuels. It's easy to get caught up in the desire to protest a fossil fuel expansion or new project approval, to launch legal challenges - they are critical actions. What Alex shares in this chat is how chronic underperformance in a sector most likely with a relatively short future offers a new perspective on reducing emissions and opportunities to speed up the transition.What originally drew me to chatting with Alex a few years back was when he shared his experience of switching from the internal change maker - the attempting internal change maker may be more appropriate - and how leaving a big corporate and taking his knowledge and skills and being able to combine those with his strengths in a new context released him from a set of professional shackles. Like many, Alex wants to make a difference, and he explains his own rationale for his time at Woodside which was both noble and necessary. His delight and enthusiasm for what he is doing now is clear, and offers a lesson for all of us in our own journeys professionally and personally as we try to seek out where and how to make the difference we hope to see in the world.I have a huge amount of respect and admiration for Alex, and getting under the hood and exploring the x's and o's of a sector in major transition was illuminating. I hope you come away similarly hopeful in how board rooms and the desks of financial analysts offers a new platform of change in radically reducing emissions.Til next time, thanks for listening. Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Sam Jones is today's guest, he's the President and Co-founder of the Heartland Initiative and was recently in town from Atlanta in the US. His work at Heartland Initiative focuses on helping investors understand and address human rights issues and related risks within their investment portfolios. He develops methods, tools, and guidance to assist investors in preventing and reducing harm to human rights through their investments.Sam has over 25 years of experience in areas like Conflict-sensitive research, analysis, and program management, International humanitarian and human rights law and Working with multiple groups on these issues. In a world seemingly in perpetual states of skirmish through to outright war, what this means for organisations with globalised supply and financial value chains, this matters and can very quickly become a problem of material consequence. Yet how businesses think about geopolitical risk and conflict has a long way to go in maturation. Sam is one of the world's foremost experts on how adverse human rights impacts converge with conflict and present risks to businesses.Before co-founding Heartland Initiative, Sam worked at The Carter Centre where he managed programs in the Middle East and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with a focus on corporate responsibility for human rights harms. Earlier, Sam cut his teeth as a regional representative for Asia at Counterpart International, where he managed humanitarian and development programs in Iraq and Jordan and led assessment missions to places like the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Lebanon, and Afghanistan.His career to date and the set of experiences he has accrued are remarkable and rare. This conversation was an eye opener for me and where we explored conflict zones, assessing human rights risks and harms, the role of investors and corporate actors in respecting the human rights of people right around the globe, how heightened conflict, record levels of migration, weakening international institutions, the climate crisis and profoundly powerful technologies are converging to re-shape the lives and safety of billions of people globally. We cover a lot of territory here. This is a masterclass from Sam whose expertise and relatability are a rare combination to learn from. His experiences in conflict zones is unlike anything I've heard before, including his five years in Iraq from 2003 to 2008.Get out your note book or app and get ready for insights and lessons galore. Sam's work offers a way for all of us to understand the world a little better, to appreciate how megatrends affect real people and what we can do as employees in organisations to protect, respect and remediate human rights right around the world.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Catherine Fitzpatrick is on the show today, and what an impressive career she's already had, all while her scope of influence continues to grow and the evidence of what she's affecting is increasingly visible and demonstrable. Catherine has 30 years of experience as a journalist, corporate executive and now an entrepreneur, she's an author and researcher and advisor to the NSW and Australian governments plus the World Bank. In 2018 she was awarded an AFR 100 Women of Influence in recognition for how she'd catalysed and then led the establishment of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia's domestic and family violence strategy, but has since gone on to become the number one international authority on financial safety by design. Her work now as the Founder and CEO of Flequity Ventures has had far reaching impacts on the banking, insurance and essential services sectors, as well as playing a vital role in the establishment of a parliamentary inquiry in 2024 into how financial services regulations and frameworks relate to financial abuse. A series of ground breaking reports under the banner of Designed to Disrupt has gone a long way in piercing a bubble of ignorance for Australian corporates in how their products and services have been and are continuing to be misused for financial abuse - you can learn even more at Respect & Protect.I first met Catherine about eight years ago when she was stewarding that work on domestic and family violence plus an internal gender equity committee. Immediately I understood that I'd come across an operator of the highest class, and we worked together on a bunch of different initiatives and projects.The content of the conversation today may be difficult listening for many, while for some it could cause harm or distress. We cover topics like domestic violence, suicide, coercive and controlling relationships and behaviours, and there are many stories on how gender-based violence and discrimination show up in relationships in homes, workplaces and in our society. If any of this is concerning to you you may want to hit stop. If you do feel distressed listening consider contacting 1800 Respect.Catherine's working at the tip of the spear for how all organisations in this country and beyond can and need to step up. As bystanders to the behaviours of their customers and the use of their products and services, the obligation to design these with leading practice safety principles and outcomes in mind is paramount in a context where Australia's issues with deep seated and long held gender bias, discrimination and violence is apparent on a daily basis. We know that the scourge of violence towards women permeates our society, and Catherine's work is shining a light on how organisations can contribute to enabling perpetrators to enact fear, shame and isolation on women in Australia.I hope you take from this conversation Catherine's call to action - play a role, don't be a bystander. We all - especially men - have an urgent role to play in gender equity and creating a safe, harmonious world for women to live in. Til next time, thanks for listening. Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Humanitix. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Marco Lambertini is on the show today, and where to start with describing one of the most iconic and visionary leaders of the environmental movement of the last 50 years. From eight years spent as the Global General Director of WWF, to being a current sitting member on the China Council, he was the CEO of Birdlife International too amid many other appointments. Marco forged a career in local and regional wildlife and landscape conservation campaigns, and with training as an ecologist and an inherent love of the natural world from before the beginning of his memories, having Marco and someone of his stature and credentials on the show is a remarkable honour for me. This was undoubtedly two of the most invigorating and insightful hours of my professional life to date.Marco was recently in town as part of his work as Convenor of the Nature Positive Initiative - a coalition focused on preserving the integrity of the Nature Positive concept and goal, drive action and provide aligned guidance to deliver it. The proliferation and use of terms by those in our industry can be dizzying - nature positive is one of the later arrivals and Marco takes away the jargon in this chat to help define our terms in plain language.His experience over 40 plus years is entirely evident in this conversation, and we cover a lot of ground - personal reconnections to the world around us, threats, psychology, magical thinking, a clear recipe to go from a nature negative economy to one that is nature positive, Financial flows, planetary tipping points, social tipping points, the rights of nature, dominance, nature as a security issue, measurement, governance, connectedness, and heaps heaps more.Spending time with Marco was a gift, and I've barely stopped thinking about many of the gems of knowledge and pearls of wisdom he offered up in our chat. He is very easy to find online with a google search. Go check out the Nature Positive Initiative and grab a copy of the new book - Becoming Nature Positive. It's available for order now and offers a compilation of some of the most experienced and knowledgeable nature positive actors globally sharing their insights, their guidance and their hope for the future. If you're interested in nature positive at your organisation, get in touch with them too.Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Ben Rennie is on the show today. A jack of many trades, from life as a prodigious rising star of Australian cricket during one of it most remarkable periods of success, to Dolce and Gabana red carpet events in Milan with Brazilian Ronaldo to starting and re-starting business endeavours to becoming the Chair of Design Declares Australia, attempting to quick describe Ben and his life is no easy feat. From walking away from the national game with everything in front of him to leaving a gig with bank executives and then pulling a professional geographic, Ben has done what I know many aspire to - change. I'm fascinated by the tools and practices that exist that sustainability professionals don't use - our reports and our frameworks and our LinkedIn posts have resulted in edge-case incremental wins by in large, all while environmental and social indicators of health, justice and security have eroded year on year. As someone from a radically different background, with a different mindset and a different approach to making an impact, I wanted to get Ben on the show to explore how I and all of us can understand creativity, what creative confidence is and the ways all of us can develop a broader set of tools to do the work we attempt valiantly day in day out.Ben's just published one of my favourite books in a long time - Lessons in Creativity: Stories and Strategies to Cultivate Your Creative Confidence. You'll hear how in this chat how the book's coming into existence is one long story of serendipitous moment after serendipitous moment, but so was my discovery of this book and then how much it affected me. I came across it a few weeks ago having attended a previous guests book launch - James Bradley - and Ben's book grabbed my attention. I checked out the title at home and realised Ben was described as a cricketer of rare distinction and wondered how someone who came through a system I was familiar with - stifled, conformist, eroding of every positive idea of self and amplifier of every insecurity, could write a book about creativity and live a life of twists and turns where making leaps from context to context was possible. I needed to read this book, and boy did I relate. It's part memoir, part guidebook part trade book and it's got something for everyone.In this conversation Ben and I traverse his experience as a seeker, his views on risk, fear and doubt, and how living for freedom is a transformative perspective to make decisions from. We chat about how he's upended and re-designed his life four times over, the role of connection, family, friendship and trust, placing faith in one's own abilities and deciding to pursue what's in your heart over prioritising what our society and culture expects of us and the way projections can cause us to shrink and retreat. We get into Ben's own progression to becoming a vocal and strong advocate for real impact and sustainability in his work and career, what Design Declares is and what we can all learn from a protocol of minimum standards deliberately designed to halt and reverse climate calamity.I absolutely loved this chat with Ben. I can't wait to spend more time with him, and to see where he goes next. He is extremely easy to find online - his website is benrennie.com while renystudio.com is where to find his design agency. He's a great follow on instagram too, so check him out and let him know how you found this chat and go and get his book.Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on Send me a messageThanks for listening.

Bec Blurton is on the show today. A Noonga woman who has built a substantive career at the intersection of First Nations rights, climate action, justice, gender, policy and finance. Speaking with Bec was a pleasure and offered me many lessons. Understanding the experiences and perspectives of those who come from different backgrounds and circumstances, but where I find commonality in experience and belief is always powerful for me. I was humbled several times in this chat with Bec being reminded of my own inherent privilege, and despite the efforts I go to and versions of challenges I face, I'm fortunate to not face structural or situational vulnerabilities like many others who aspire to versions of safe, just and beautiful future just like I do. Bec reminded me again and in new ways that with my privileges comes duties to be of service and to be a proactive proponent for equity in our society.Bec is a powerful advocate for justice for First Nations communities and peoples, taking her extraordinary work ethic and directing it towards activating and building collectives and communities that find their voice, connect more powerfully to their identity and seek new modes and methods for justice and dignity. She is a Conceptual Foundations Working Group member of the The Taskforce on Inequality and Social-related Financial Disclosures , Deputy Chair of the Australian Sustainable Finance Institute's Advisory Committee, she's worked in large corporates and government, and is now the Managing Director of First Nations Affairs, is a Member of the Ballardong Aboriginal Corporation and is the founder of another climate collective.This conversation covers a lot of terrain - origins and identity, finding ways to do work without end and the necessity of seeking professional help and being involved with communities of solidarity, the lengths still needed to truly address First Nations inequalities, the green shoots arising in many parts of our society and economy demanding better futures, and the challenges and honest reflections of where being an agent of change is more likely and possible.We cover a lot of territory, and felt like a conversation with an old friend for me. I took plenty of learnings and looking forward to being more involved with Bec's work in the future. If you are too, Bec is easily findable online - head to firstnationsaffairs.com and search for another climate collective. Her work is vital, differentiated and shining a very bright light on how power and history combine to obfuscate reality and what's truly needed for more equitable and just futures.In the May edition of the Finding Nature substack, I'm exploring perfect imperfection. Maria Montessori said this, which I think represent Bec's actions for justice and equity “Every great cause is born from repeated failures and from imperfect achievements.”Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is Professor Carl Rhodes. It's new book season at the moment and Carl's latest offering is titled Stinking Rich - The Four Myths of the Good Billionaire. This is his latest work, coming after previous titles such as Woke Capitalism; How Corporate Morality is Sabotaging Democracy and CEO Society: The Corporate Takeover of Everyday Life. Carl is also the Dean of the Business School at the University of Technology Sydney, but he's also held professorships at Swansea University, The University of Leicester and Macquarie University. His career in the private sector involved senior positions at AGL, Lend Lease, Citibank and The Boston Consulting Group. His experience across business and academia allows Carl to have a unique and deeply experienced view on what make companies tick, how economic structures reinforce capitalist priorities to the detriment of a just society, and unpack and be clear on the role of governments and businesses in a western world where those roles are increasingly unclear and uncertain.Stinking Rich is a brilliant book. I loved reading it in preparation for this conversation and came away informed, hopeful, appalled and fearful. In a context where the rich are getting richer at faster rates, and the billionaire - from Musk to Gates to Rinehart to Cannon-Brooks - their everyday-ness in our culture is overt. Carl's book pulls back the curtain on the archetypes and drivers of the very very very rich, and how their access, influence and power is distorting democracy for the benefit of the few. It's easy to malign capitalist structures without deeply appreciating their origins and ontologies, as well as the mechanics and examples of how wealth becomes might. This book was illuminating for me in how it examined and exhibited the runaway authority billionaires have over our everyday lives in everything from medicine and health to climate action to politics and government decision making.Stinking Rich - The Four Myths of the Good Billionaire - like all of Carl's work - is a message about the dangerous path our society is on. Co-opted by rich vested interests and often outside the view of the public, this conversation illuminates what we all need to know and actively work to slow, stop and reverse.Perfect imperfection is about the idea that progress is what matters, that perfectionism is a trap of over thinking and a desire for control. Surrendering to what is better and acknowledging perfection is nothing but a myth is something I try to work on daily. After speaking with Carl and his call for new political imaginations that deliver economic justice and equality, this quote from Marilyn Monroe struck me as a relevant and a call to action for all of us: “Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. It is better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Dean Spaccavento is on the show today. And if there is someone who embodies the mind, body and spirit of the enormity we as attempted change makers more than Dean does, then I haven't met them. In a week where we've seen nuclear energy and the Liberal party totally poleaxed by the electorate - and what a surprise that is - the race to decarbonise the Australian and global energy systems is absolutely on at the moment. For more than 15 years Dean has been on the vanguard of what a new energy system in this country could and needs to be. The distraction and denial that has permeated the energy transition to deliver zero emissions and support justice and equity for as many people as possible is an immense undertaking, and certainly not an undertaking I wish to sound dismissive or cynical about. Re-engineering and re-wiring how we all live and work on a daily basis is a staggering effort, and add into that vested interests who have demonstrated no interest in being part of this transition, the challenges of land access, problems of bad operators and poor practice, plus the necessary changes in our own practices regarding energy plus finding alignment on value propositions for new energy models is all incredibly complex.Dean has seen it all though, and as the CEO and Co-Founder of Reposit Power, his life's work since 2008 has been to been to play a central role in elegantly threading a needle that too often has seemed to have no eye. Reposit Power have created a customer proposition that is still unmatched in the market, where alignment between a customer who's homes acts as renewable energy generator exists with Reposit's technology and energy market service capabilities, then their ability to be able to work with a solar install sector that one third of the time doesn't deliver what they're paid to do, plus navigating complex regulatory conditions all within the largest machine in the world - the National Electricity Market, is extraordinary. And he does it all without being a far right sympathiser, hasn't sought prosecution for the head of an infectious disease department nor publicly slandered people seeking to help and rescue trapped kids in a cave in Thailand.Today's chat is a lesson and primer on the Australian electricity system and the transition we want and need it to go through. It's full of stories from Dean's experience - the ups and downs, the illogical and the logical. We chat about the increasingly bifurcated energy system we now have in place, the array of problems this causes, obfuscation by vested interests, the problems of accelerating technology evolution and the downside for the less well off and the crucial, central role of trust and truth in this grand endeavour to change the underlying functioning of our economy and society.Dean Spaccavento is a role model for me in how to go about making change - with perseverance, integrity and maybe most importantly, a sense of humour.

Jocelyn King is on the show today. Joc is a Bundjalung woman who over the course of her life and career has worked to develop her own understanding of and connection to traditional knowledge systems. She's worked in and around finance for more than a decade, where today she is the Chair of First Australians Capital. At the same time, she's building a farm in NSW's Hunter Valley that reprises First Nations knowledge of caring for and re-awakening Country while adapting regenerative agricultural practices too. Jocelyn walks the talk as she seeks to advocate for First Nations justice, truth telling and self-determination, while also appreciating the limitations of working and interacting with capitalist neoliberal systems that do their best to erode equity, habitats and power dynamics.I was very humbled and very honoured to spend this time with Jocelyn. The sharing she offered and wisdom imparted on me - a non-Indigenous ancestor of colonisers - was remarkable to experience. My efforts as a non-Indigenous man to act in allyship with First Nations people feels too limited for my liking, which I'm ashamed to say, but feels true. My efforts to support, listen and prompt questioning feels like an area I want to evolve and advance this year, which I'm hopeful to do through our upcoming project Eating Country to Save Country. As a white man I was genuinely enthralled and privileged to have this time with Jocelyn.In this chat we cover a lot of ground - from reparations for past harms financiers have facilitated including the origins of banking in Australia to flipping mindsets and stories from extractive to responsibility oriented to the role of listening in truth telling. It felt like we barely scratched the surface but leaves me looking forward to speaking with Jocelyn again in the future.Efforts to make good for the harms perpetrated on First Nations people in this country for over two centuries has a very long way to go. The struggle is sobering but the resolve of Australia's First Nations people is a remarkable story of perseverance, unity and love, and Jocelyn does a beautiful job of offering her own experience, strength and hope here.The April Finding Nature journal hits inboxes this Saturday morning and it's on the topic of unity. Ina ll we heard from Jocelyn today and with that theme in mind, this quote from Tony Evans struck me in our combined efforts to seek voice, treaty and truth in this country: “Unity is oneness of purpose, not sameness of persons.”Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's show is with James Bradley - renowned Australian author who is returning to the show a year after releasing what was one of my favourite books of 2024 - Deep Water, Life in the Ocean. James' books have been nominated and awarded prizes all over the country, and in 2021 he was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for "service to literature as a writer'. He's written for the Guardian, The Monthly, The Saturday Paper and The Conversation. His work is incisive and always brilliantly written, and at a time when it's difficult to keep up or fully appreciate what is happening in our world, I always enjoy seeing James' work appear whether in book form, his essays or newspaper contributions.James is on the show today to talk about his upcoming book - Landfall. A return to more familiar territory for him of fiction after his first non fiction effort in Deep Water, this is anything but a normal read. Blending the science of climate change in a radically altered Sydney landscape in a medium term timescale, Landfall is a crime story where impending disaster, omnipresent surveillance technology, social dysfunction and forced migration are all background characters. This is a story of kindness, heartbreak, fear and hope. I loved reading it and I'm looking forward to getting to the launch of Landfall in Sydney on April 29 - search for James Bradley Landfall and Gleebooks to get your ticket too.James is a brilliant story teller. Landfall is another contribution on how we can think about time and futures, story and the stories we tell ourselves about the future, the practice of writing, writing as a tool and what all of this means for any and all of us who think in or use words as a medium of attempting change.Speaking to James and how he weaved kindness into Landfall, and with April's substack being on the theme of unity, this quote from Marielle Heller is very apt - “With all of the bad things that are happening in the world right now, I think we need a message of togetherness and true unity. I believe that starts with personal reflection and then we can find kindness toward each other.”Til next time, thanks for listeningEvents are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Hello out there, this is the Finding Nature podcast and my name is Nathan Robertson-Ball. I started this show with the intent of creating the types of conversations that I knew I needed but also thought people that work in the broad tent of sustainability wanted to hear too - combining discussions on the issues and problems our civilisation and planet face with the optimism of what has and could be done but also getting into the mindsets and philosophies of the people who have been on the frontlines of attempting and succeeding in this work. I wanted to have conversations that blend cognitive stimulation with emotional nourishment and spiritual enlightenment with the intent of helping me and hopefully you grow and evolve as a person and support our shared aspirations to contribute to a safer, more just and equitable future.Today's guest is Michael Bones, and when I invited him onto the show I thought maybe we'd have a chance of hitting those dimensions and the overlap between them, and it didn't disappoint. I absolutely loved speaking with Michael, as I have every time I have over the last couple years when we've connected over our shared love/hate of trying to work out how financial services entities and government can be far more proactive and take actually meaningful action on the dark shadow a changed and changing climate means for everything everywhere. Under Michael's cognition is an awakened spirit and loving human. We get through much on the climate risk and adaptation side, policy and the risks of capital flight in addition to the physical degradation of a stable climate. We chat about Michael's own grief and challenges when confronted with the breadth and depth of a changed climate, his own journey to reclaiming his own sanity and health, and he also manages to get a lot of me and my own despair and life meltdowns.April is about unity at the finding nature substack this month. Nick Lowles founded Hope not Hate in 2004 as an anti racist and anti fascist movement and this quote from him resonates after learning from Michael “It is in unity that we find strength; in unity we find hope, and in unity we can stand firm as the darkness approaches. Land us stand together - and stand firm - against many faces of hate”I absolutely adored this conversation. Michael is a special person, a gift to all of us as we navigate our own journeys. I hope you enjoy it and find your own story in parts of his. Til next time, thanks for listening. Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

I'm very pleased to bringing you a chat with Victoria Whitaker. I was really excited to chat with Vic - she's another of the originals of the Sydney and Australian sustainability crew like Lee Stewart and Nicolette Boele I've had the chance to chat with on this show. I did some work with Vic the best part of a decade ago when she was at The Ethics Centre, and it was immediately evident how thoughtful, well regarded and insightful she was.Vic has held a number of different roles in various organisations over time. From being involved in the earlier days of the Cambridge Institute for Sustainable Leadership and running Al Gore's Climate Project in the UK, to joining Choice, working on the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme in the initial Kevin Rudd prime ministerial years, she brought the Global Reporting Initiative and UN Global Compact to Australia, spent time at the Ethics Centre and was recently a partner at Deloitte doing all sorts of sustainability, human rights and social licence work.Vic represents the required breadth of knowledge, skills and capabilities of the sustainability professional. under that though is a person driven to make a difference. She has Always been looking to find a way to alter the trajectory of a problem or an organisation's contribution to it. It was a pleasure having Vic on the show to chat about the history of this work, her own stories and then the fundamental role of ethics, values and principles in decision making that is often the missing factor in a corporate sustainability machine that is now fixated on mandatory disclosures, mandatory ESG assessment and mandatory e-learnings. Change doesn't happen when you try to force it on people, and as we hear from Vic here, the reprisal and spreading of the original ontology of sustainability needs work, stretching back to what Rachel Carson's seminal Silent Spring from 1962 helped reveal.Chatting to Vic was illuminating. I haven't been able to stop thinking about the pursuit of more sustainable futures without different ways by which decisions are made which value and prioritise ethics, values and principles. The April newsletter is on the theme of unity, and in crisis it's easy to feel isolated and alone. Together though, we are far stronger, our unity is where our power lies. With Vic in mind, and the theme of unity, here's this quote from Thomas Paine which to me represents the situation of the sustainability professional “It is not in numbers but in our unity that our great strength lies.”Til next time, thanks for listening. Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Brian Schmidt is absolutely one of these extraordinary people - a normal person who's lived an entirely abnormal life. Besides being awarded a Nobel Prize, Brian was also the Vice Chancellor of the Australian National University for eight years, including during the Covid pandemic. He's a physicist, astrologist and astrophysicist by training, receiving his undergrad from the University of Arizona then his PhD from Harvard. For more than 30 years he's called Australia home, making the move here and becoming one of the most significant figures in the history of humanity's understanding of the universe and our extremely small place in it.This was a brilliant conversation - covering everything from Brian's research to his time at ANU, his views on Australia's education system, the role of universities and how we can all approach learning, education and lifelong development. As well, we chat about how Brian thinks about hard problems, his own calculus in making a difference today on some of the world's greatest challenges from food shortages to nuclear proliferation.This was a real honour. Brian is a global leader in his field - one of the greatest that's ever lived - so to spend some time with him was remarkable, and I hope you take from this how within reach the extraordinary is. The newsletter is out this week on the theme of choice. With Brian on the show to explore and understand cosmology, astronomy and physics, the great Carl Sagan is appropriate this week - “We are the legacy of 15 billion years of cosmic evolution. We can enhance life and come to know the universe that made us. Or we can squander our 15 billion year heritage in meaningless self destruction.”Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is someone I've wanted to bring on the show for a little while - Kaylene Langford. The reason why I wanted to have Kaylene on is because her job is all about helping people take their hare brained schemes or half concocted ideas and turn them into businesses. This matters to me - both because I've done it and experienced a remarkable transformation in how I understand and can exercise my agency in attempting to make a difference, but because I know just about everybody listening today does harbour ideas and visions of starting their own thing.Part of what I set about undertaking this year was finding voices that are adjacent to or completely outside the world of sustainability and to bring their knowledge and wisdom into ours. People who are creative, who are creating. At a time of planetary crisis and societal unrest, we need something new. More corporate disclosures won't reverse greenhouse gas emissions. More parliamentary inquiries won't deliver more trust in democratic institutions. New action is needed for new outcomes, and Kaylene is a master at helping you, me and anybody else get after that problem addressing idea you've got tucked away from sight. I wanted to speak with and learn from Kaylene - the role of story telling, the necessity of starting and the paralysis of fear.Kaylene is a business starter and owner of Start Up Creative, she's an author, a coach, a speaker. She writes, she hosts courses and workshops, she shares her lessons through podcast. Most of all though she's the type of unique and valuable voice I think those in the Finding Nature community need to hear, and it's such a joy to bring this conversation to you today.Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest is a larger than life personification of that change - Kal Glanznig. Kal is a force - animated, enthusiastic, humble, curious and as a youth climate leader he's entirely committed to doing all he can to avert a climate catastrophe.Kal's successes to date are plenty.- from activating a school solar installation to launching a community anti-plastic platform, to scaling and changing a retail business to becoming one of the youngest local government councillors in this state to now driving a national youth eco anxiety mental health initiative. His list of achievements is extraordinary for a 24 year old though it's immediately apparent when you meet and speak with Kal how he's managed to get so much done already.Kal came into my orbit at the AdaptNSW conference last year where he made a pointed remark from the stage that he couldn't see any younger people in the audience - something that struck me then and we chat about today. I also learnt in preparing to chat with Kal that two thirds of young Australians experience eco anxiety and fear of the future of the planet. Two thirds - that is an incredible and terrifying number. I wanted to chat to Kal as I know my life is not as full of folks in their 20s these days, and this generation is both who are often driving so much action globally, but are also entirely dependent on all of us getting our act together and being effective in what we do whether its addressing climate change, plastic pollution, avoiding the impending threat of deep sea mining or being an advocate for the ocean.I hope you're as moved, inspired and in awe of him listening as I was speaking with him. Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Today's guest though is someone I was very excited to spend some time with - Digby Hall. Digby is a renowned architect who for more than three decades has played a leading role in shaping and delivering versions of sustainability and resilient projects. More than that though, his thinking, influence and understanding of complex dynamic systems and being able to make sense and create practical actions that are necessary for adaptation is outstanding. To go with his registered architect label, He's also a Ted Speaker, advisor, PhD scholar and entrepreneur who has helped me appreciate that adaptation isn't just an abstract concept or something relevant only for the most at risk places and people around the world, but a notion that everything, everywhere will need to be evolved and changed to deal with a new climate reality. From the obvious like homes and coastal infrastructure, to food systems and how government procurement processes operate.Digby is a deep thinker and pragmatic operator, blending high quality research with his own extensive experience to now be one of Australia's - if not the world's - most astute purveyor of the necessity of adaptation.Alright Digby. As I think becomes immediately apparent in this conversation he has a legitimate understanding about the scope, scale and urgency of adaptation. Efforts to decarbonise haven't progressed as they've needed to and a result we all have an enormous amount to do in making the physical, cultural, social, political and economic changes required to avoid the very worst of the losses and damages that are now locked in from a changing climate.The March newsletter is going to be on the theme of choices. And don't we have some to make at this moment. To fight, to freeze or to fly. This conversation with Digby - and the choices regarding adaptation - reminded me of one of my favourite quotes from Jerzy Gregorek: hard choices, easy life. Easy choices, hard life.Til next time, thanks for listening.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

Emma Bacon is the Executive Director of Sweltering Cities and she's on the show this week to talk about and share more on the terrifying reality of what she describes as the personal tragedies of a hotter everywhere world.My name is Nathan Robertson-Ball and welcome to the Finding Nature podcast. I started this show nearly a year ago and the broader endeavour that is Finding Nature as a response to my own disaffection and distress over the trajectory of so much. In that time we've had another record year of greenhouse gas emissions, heat records just about everywhere have been smashed again and the election of - and my favourite description so far - a useful idiot in the US has emboldened authoritarianism, emboldening dumb binary politicking and a massive retreat from organisations who a couple of years ago were all rushing to commit to play their part in the avoidance of planetary calamity. What halcyon days they seem like now.So Finding Nature is a response to that disaffection and distress. I have this show where each week I get to go longer form with the people on the frontlines of change making and impact creation, over on Substack I write about the Encroaching Apocalypse or a Glorious New View and also collect the views and contributions of many others in our community. Lastly - Finding Nature holds events that bring life and atmosphere to this whole thing. Like a refuge for the people who often feel like mutants in the environments they spend their time in. Finding Nature is easy to find on Substack, Humanitix, Instagram and LinkedIn, and then we're on all the podcast platforms including the one you're listening to this episode on now.OK so Emma Bacon, Sweltering Cities and heat. This topic legitimately terrifies me. As a civilisation dependent on a goldilocks climate zone for our stable existence, what happens as we enter a new climate era - defined primarily by not only more frequent and intense disasters - but by the ratcheting up of heat everywhere. From average temperatures and the ways by which that affects the delicate cycles of life in specific locations, to blasting furnace heat waves that obliterate heat records and cause widespread suffering, loss, death and damage. So much of the climate crisis is esoteric or abstract for the regular person - but everyone knows heat. It's inescapable, and it's arrived and arriving. Emma outlines plenty in this chat - the despair over how decisions makers at all levels can't hide behind plausible deniability as a valid reason for inaction, how vested interests lock in structural inequality and worsen conditions through inappropriate building standards and the ways by which everyone everywhere is at risk of heat.We cover a lot of ground in this chat, and I hope you come away not only more informed but ready to action.Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram. Today's show is delivered with Altiorem.

“If you say honesty is a core value, are you kidding me? Do you want people working in your organisation that are dishonest? That doesn't make sense!”   This is a special episode only available to our podcast subscribers, which we call The Mini Chief. These are short, sharp highlights from our fabulous CEO guests, where you get a 5 to 10 minute snapshot from their full episode. In this edition of the Mini Chief we feature a snippet from our Best of Series with Group CEO of Nuix, Jonathan Rubinsztein. His full episode is titled Bringing values to life, compressing time, and the 3 key principles of motivation. You can find the full audio and show notes here:

“Often the people you speak to are in the same industry and that creates an echo chamber. If you don't have communication with people outside your industry, you're going to be someone else's lunch or dinner in this crazy world of disruption.”   In this Best of Series episode of The Inner Chief podcast, we feature Group CEO of Nuix, Jonathan Rubinsztein, on bringing values to life, compressing time, and the 3 key principles of motivation.

What do concert tickets and philanthropy have in common? Generally, not much, but a couple of friends of The Life You Can Save are working very hard to change that. Tech entrepreneurs Joshua Ross and Adam McCurdie could have made a fortune building their ticketing platform start up, but a trip to war-torn Sri Lanka fueled their desires to do work that was truly meaningful. It took a few years to get all the pieces aligned, but in 2016, Humanitix launched with a mission to be "The home of tickets for good, not greed." And in less than a decade, they've transformed more than $10 million (Australian) dollars to healthcare, housing, education, and more — including a donation of $4M AUD to The Life You Can Save! In this episode, Charlie talks with co-founders Josh and Adam about the history of Humanitix, the good it's done so far, and their mission to do even more in the years to come. Find more about Humanitix and founders Josh and Adam at their website, humanitix.com/us.
