Podcast appearances and mentions of joe brewer

In this episode, Ashley interviews husband and wife team Ben and Lucy about their eco-market in upstate New York, and Geoffrey from Longstory Farms about his planned local farm story in South Carolina. We discuss the importance of local commerce, challenges, and nuts and bolts approaches to competing in the market. Ben and Lucy Janssen both grew up in upstate NY and met at the local Community College. Lucy started her store Reuse Refuge in October 2020 with a friend while many small businesses were closing. The goal was to help provide the local community with non-plastic or biodegradable necessities of everyday life that help reduce domestic waste streams. It has since adapted and branched out its focus to maintain a foothold in the small city of Auburn's downtown. Going on its 5th year it has struggled to flourish financially as its vision doesn't prioritize consumerism but the more traditional scale economy. Ben works a job helping the developmentally disabled. The store hours are limited to weeknights and weekends when he's not working as they raise their 5-year-old. Ben grew interested in soil health and eventually peak oil. Ben met Jason Snyder in Joe Brewer's online regeneration class in 2020 and has kept in touch with the Doomer Optimism community since. Although Ben has grown more agnostic on peak oil or collapse perspectives he continues to read many books on the theme of industrial society and its effects on ecological and cultural shifts over time while supporting his wife's vision for her store. @reuserefuge on Instagram and TikTok @bennirubber on Instagram, Youtube, Substack, X, and Benjamin Janssen on goodreads.com  Long Story Farms, LLC is a family-run pasture-based, sustainable farm just outside Newberry, SC. We offer pork and poultry, eggs, and select produce to consumers in the Newberry, Chapin, and Columbia areas.  In the next few months, we will open a store offering local farm products, a zero-waste refiller, and some bulk foods.  website: Longstoryfarms.com Instagram: @longstoryfarmsc X.com: @longstoryfarms Facebook: @longstoryfarms https://www.instagram.com/reuserefuge?igsh=eGVlNXlia2F0dnZp Tik tok https://www.tiktok.com/@reuserefuge

A community of Earth System scientists at the Stockholm Resilience Centre asked a powerful question: How do we define a safe operating space for humanity with all that is currently known about the Earth's various systems? They determined that there are there are nine critical thresholds that together define a safe operating space for humanity: biosphere integrity, climate change, land-system change, freshwater use, biogeochemical flows of nitrogen and phosphorus, ocean acidification, atmospheric aerosol loading, stratospheric ozone depletion, and one other catch-all category for unimagined risks. If we cross any one of these thresholds, it could be Game Over for humanity. And by some estimates, we have already crossed four of them.  Enter Joe Brewer. He has written a book called The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth that addresses the intentional application of knowledge and tools to create solutions for regenerating living systems, feasible methods for getting all nine boundary dynamics back within acceptable limits. Joe does admit this is a gargantuan task and one that will require working through inner grief and trauma while experiencing the already occurring effects of planetary collapse.  Enter Bill Pfeiffer (Sky Otter), a dear friend, who as much as anyone I know, is doing something about changing our inner attitude about how to engage with the Earth, to engage with wildness, to live an ecstatic life in harmony and balance with all there is. His method for enacting change has been to design Wild Earth Intensives that bring people into sacred community and provide a microcosm for a future sustainable society. I wanted to bring these two guests together to represent both the outer and inner solutions for the seemingly intractable ecological challenges we now face. Join us as we explore "Restoring Health to Our Planet" on the Circle for Original Thinking podcast.

How about these goals: Avoid human extinction Cultivate healthy economies of living systems at local landscape, continental and planetary scales Emerge into these systems on the other side of whatever crises and collapse(s) are aheadWhat would that take?Joe Brewer has dedicated his life to this question, and to a "living laboratory" of bioregional regeneration and community collaboration. He is the founder of Earth Regenerators and co-founder of the newly established Design School for Regenerating Earth.I have learned so much from Joe. He's been a source of information, inspiration, techniques and strategies, and also the reason I've found many other people I'm now so grateful to be connected with (including Charles Upton, whom you heard from in Episode 21). Joe gave me a big grin and two thumbs up when I said that I frame these conversations in the language of Joanna Macy, so we have that in common. His roots of study spread wide in many other directions, though: He's a complexity researcher and transdisciplinary scholar who has studied cultural evolution, physics, atmospheric sciences, and cognitive linguistics, among other things. Joe is also a father, and someone who is trying to embody the pathway to Earth Regeneration. I know through community photos and stories that he's out there digging swales and planting trees, and participating actively in all the realities of community cooperation.I've been looking forward to having a conversation with Joe Brewer for a long time, and I'm excited to share it with you now.Click Play now to dive into:working for regeneration on the scale of larger landscapes, even if we live in cities (how did water move through this bioregion before these cities existed?) in thinking about sustainability, how much depends on the regenerative capacity of the land having children, being with children, and being there for children, in these times (I loved this: "children are such a profound source of human emotional regeneration") the tapestry of local projects being woven together in the High Andes Tropical Dry Forest ecosystem of Barichara, Colombia - a living laboratory for a bioregional-scale regenerative economy  the human species being in ecological overshoot, what that probably means about the future, and what Joe is "actively hopeful" for, in light of that how to have effective, cooperative groups - both the knowledge about how to do that, and the actual practice of doing it and Joe's words of advice on following your heart, and being ready for people to be confusedI continue to learn so much from Joe and the Earth Regenerators community. Maybe for some of you listening this will also be a doorway into what's next for you, in your journey toward embodying life-sustaining, life-honoring, regenerative ways to live in the web of Life.Come to the show notes for links to connect with Joe Brewer, check out the Design School for Regenerating Earth, and learn about other topics we touched on: turningseason.com/episode33

In this episode we are continuing our series of Earth Regenerators Stories with Jakob Seidler talking to Vivek Gani. Vivek visited Joe Brewer during the in-person workshop he gave back in Costa Rica on The Strategic Framing of Planetary Collapse many years ago. From then onward, he has been involved in the important first discussions when Earth Regenerators tried to find its own identity as it developed from a random assortment of individuals into a community. We hope you enjoy our conversation with him and take his advice to heart: always remain in inquiry, lest you might blind yourself to hidden opportunities.Jakob Seidler lives the life of a happy generalist, working on various regenerative projects under the banner of the Barichara Ecoversity.This podcast is a decentralized platform for the regenerative community. Anybody on Earth Regenerators can propose or record their own episode! So if you are already on Earth Regenerators, contact Jakob Seidler if you have an idea for a future interview or audio-essay. And if you are not on there yet, come and join us for regular learning journeys on the pathway to regeneration, inspiration from the many regenerative projects reporting there and a wonderful community woven around mutual support!Let's regenerate the earth!

In this episode we are continuing our series of Earth Regenerators Stories with Jakob Seidler talking to Rachel Olson. Rachel was on the ER Journey before Earth Regenerators was even created, finding Joe Brewer's first Crowdcast webinars through Twitter. She was part of the first study group on the Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth and of the first steps of many of the projects that now host the biggest activity on the Earth Regenerators Mighty Networks Platform, from the Bioregional Catalysts to the ER Fund. She has also just released the second book published with Earth Regenerators Press: Finding Ourselves in the Age of Collapse. We hope you enjoy listening to her journey and feel as inspired as we did.Jakob Seidler lives the life of a happy generalist, working on various regenerative projects under the banner of the Barichara Ecoversity.

Joe Brewer a man who barely needs introduction by now visited the podcast. If you have not heard of him check out Earth Regenerators or the book Joe co-authored with the community. This conversation is so valuable. We speak about urgency and earth regeneration - not in the normal way, as if our house is on fire but rather the desire that regeneration creates in us. We speak of why humans should stay around, of knowing, of arrogance and of sovereignty. This is a beautiful connecting of dots between the inner and outer perspectives and why they are so deeply related. I think the conversation is both timely and important. Joe speaks of Prosocial World towards the end of the podcast - go find the others there too. Enjoy!

I know we say this all the time around Doomer Optimism, but this time we really have a special episode. Brought live from Colombia, host Steven Morris (@lifesmyth) interviews Joe Brewer (@cognitivepolicy) about the Earth Regenerators community and the work they're doing in Colombia. Jason Snyder (@cognazor) also joins them. Gear up for an optimism-heavy episode. About Joe Brewer Joe Brewer has separate bachelors degrees in physics, mathematics, and interdisciplinary studies and a masters in atmospheric sciences. He is a complexity researcher, innovation strategist, experience designer, and serial social entrepreneur who brings a wealth of expertise to the adoption of sustainable solutions at the cultural scale. His experiences as a social entrepreneur and cross-disciplinary scholar weave together a combination of skills dedicated to open collaboration, interactive design, and empowered civic action for catalyzing change toward greater resilience in our turbulent world. More recently, he has moved to Colombia and is engaged in regenerating an area of dry desert with the aim of returning it to flourishing biodiversity. He has written The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth and established Earth Regenerators, a community, a study group and a place to share ideas that will bring us closer to a prosocial world, focussed on bioregions where the human and More-Than-Human worlds integrate, where we organise with direct local democracy, create a steady state economy, based on shared values and not on growth, and where we predicate our actions on trusting the good intentions of others. About Steven Morris Steven Morris started his journey into then unnamed realm of Doomer Optimism in 2011 when, during the time of a divorce, he stumbled upon 3 of the many early doomer optimist voices: Chris Martenson's Crash Course, John Michael Greer's blog The Archdruid Report, and KMO's C-Realm podcast. These 3 identified the many issues of decline in the world that he could sense but didn't have words for. At the same time they all provided positive possibilities for the future. Steven considers himself an amateur Renaissance Man and Polymath of sorts with a wide variety of interests including: appropriate use of technology, regenerative systems, explorations in consciousness, alternative (sometimes called complementary) currency systems, computer technology, and complex systems. He has worked on multiple award winning independent films, managed warehouse logistics for a small business, run a college radio station and lead ecstatic dance workshops. He is a trained Host for Nora Bateson's People Need People gatherings. He currently generates income from running the audio visual technology behind corporate events and is working with the Commons Engine as the video editor for their upcoming Currency Design for Change Agents master class to be launched this spring. Steven is committed to supporting people find their way through the rapidly changing chaos, especially those who don't see themselves as homesteaders.

For environmentalists “agriculture” can be something of a dirty word, associated with other words such as, pesticides, water consumption, pollutants, and deforestation. Not all environmentalists have these negative associations, though. Some, like my guest today, are working to re-fashion agricultural practices so that they actually help to reverse environmental damage. This week on Sea Change … Continue reading Joe Brewer: Farms of the Future (re-broadcast) → This article and podcast Joe Brewer: Farms of the Future (re-broadcast) appeared first on Sea Change Radio.

A global network of people from all walks of life has somehow coalesced into a thriving online community — The Earth Regenerators. Their intention is to weave relationships that restore planetary health at scale. In part two of our series with Joe Brewer, we tell the story of this vibrant community and explore how to design truly regenerative human cultures.

Joe Brewer is a culture designer learning how to live regeneratively in the Andes mountains of Colombia. His project, Origen del Agua, aims to transform a community and a landscape — all to bring a river back to life. This living demonstration shows us a path to restore planetary health at scale. And is also giving birth to a design school for Earth regeneration. 

Host Chris Mass speaks with the Oak Beach Drifter, an anonymous figure, who lived with Joe Brewer. The OBD recalls Brewer's questionable behavior and lifestyle choices along with Brewer's claim of an "Ace up his sleeve" if the situation ever called for it. Plus, Chris speaks with renowned criminologist, Dr Kim Rossmo, and forensic psychologist, Dr Jacqueline Sebire, about the power and limitations of even the most advanced case-solving methodologies and how those relate to updates in the LISK case.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We invited Joe Brewer on the show again as part of our regenerative series. We had him last year, and we talked about cultural evolution and designing regenerative cultures. Since then Joe moved to a rural community in Colombia, started the Earth Regenerators Study Group, and wrote a new book.  In this episode we talk about this new book called The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth. We also talk about what it’s like to live in economic collapse, how to re-establish relationships with nature and community, and how something as important as Earth Regeneration can be done with a sense of child-like playfulness.

This is an audio version of Complexity & the Pandemic, Nora Bateson, Joe Brewer & Jim Rutt which was published on the Rebel Wisdom YouTube site April 8th 2020. The pandemic and the subsequent crisis took our institutions and leaders by surprise. But the people who have been studying complexity and systems for decades saw this coming. What can the lens of systems theory and complexity reveal about the crisis? Rebel Wisdom talks to three experts in the field. Jim Rutt, the former chairman of the world-leading Santa Fe Institute, Nora Bateson, the head of the Bateson Institute and the inventor of 'Warm Data' labs, and Joe Brewer, an expert in complexity research, cognitive science, and cultural evolution.Rebel Wisdom are now running regular Q&As with the interviewees from our films for our members, check out: https://www.rebelwisdom.co.uk/plans

[Intro: 9:56 | Book Pre-sale: http://bit.ly/ORBITgr] In this episode, I speak with Joe Brewer — change strategist, complexity researcher, cognitive scientist, and evangelist for the field of culture design. We discuss living regeneratively in the COVID-19 pandemic and the message Gaia is sending in the midst of this crisis, community resilience in the age of planetary collapse, the Earth Regenerators study group, and the Earth Regeneration Fund and the "Regenerative Death Clause" as presented in his recent essay ‘A “Regenerative Death Clause” for Coronavirus.’ “This fund becomes a mechanism for removing land from speculative markets and establishing around it the safeguards enabled by land trusts and cooperative land banks. It de-risks other investments by creating tracking and validation systems for the regenerative actions that begin to flow around the work of people who join the Earth regeneration effort. I am thinking of a specific way that this vision might materialize in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic. Imagine having a “Regenerative Death Clause” in your will that declares if you die from the Coronavirus a designated amount of money is gifted to the Earth Regeneration Fund. This enables you to keep the money if you survive. But if you become really sick and realize the end is near, it will enable you to experience your death as part of a great rebirth of life on Earth with the landscape regeneration enabled by your dying wish.” (https://bit.ly/2R8doDR) Joe Brewer has a background in physics, math, philosophy, atmospheric science, complexity research, and cognitive linguistics.

In this interview, we catch up with what Joe has experienced in the six to eight months since we last spoke on this podcast, which mainly includes a big move with his family to Costa Rica from the United States. I ask him why he and his family chose Costa Rica do work in culture design, and why Costa Rica in particular is primed for regenerative practices and planetary collapse management. I ask Joe to detail his work in designing in-depth courses that lay the groundwork for individuals to build “regenerative hubs” across the planet’s numerous bioregions, and within this scaffolding of knowledge and practice, facilitate the management of planetary collapse on the local and global scale as nation-states, economies, ecologies, and the global climate system continue to break down into the near and distant future. As is a common theme in Joe’s work and in our discussions, I ask Joe about the necessity of doing this work, in spite of the overwhelming likelihood that the human species and countless species of nonhuman life will go extinct as a result of ecological collapse and abrupt climate disruption. Even in the face of planetary collapse on multiple fronts, there are individuals that are doing (seemingly) invisible and sacred work in managing this unprecedented collapse, generating and expanding systems that heal the land, the climate, the human psyche, and humanity’s relationship with the living systems of this planet. As Joe says in this discussion, what can we do that is worthy of our hope?

This is Part 2 of our interview with Joe Brewer of the Center for Applied Cultural Evolution, where we talk about modern versions of rites of passage, and why they are important. We also discuss the ways to support cultural evolution and develop regenerative cultures that are capable of dealing with global problems and existential risks.

Our guest in this episode is Joe Brewer, Executive Director at the Center for Applied Cultural Evolution. Joe is a complexity researcher, cognitive scientist, and evangelist for regenerative culture design. We invited him onto the show because we felt that our ideas about adult development, rites of passage, and overcoming the chasm of nihilism strongly resonated with his thinking and work on cultural evolution. This interview turned out to be very dense and we talked about complex subjects, so we divided the episode in two parts. In Part 1 we talk about what kind of education we need in order to prepare for an evolutionary transition, why even intellectuals can’t wrap their heads around climate change, and the importance of the grieving process for psychological and spiritual growth.

Joe Brewer is a complexity researcher, cognitive scientist, and evangelist for the field of culture design. We discuss the social, economic, and ecological collapse we are currently in the midst of as a result of the destructive impacts of human industrial activity and the cultural value systems that uphold these practices. As the global economic, social, and ecological systems continue to collapse, what role can we play in developing regenerative practices that can heal the damage wrought in the pursuit of economic growth? Joe understands fully that we have entered into ecological overshoot, and that we very likely are witnessing not only the collapse of our global civilization, but also the end of the human species as a result of abrupt climate change and widespread ecological collapse. I ask Joe to clarify and elaborate on his work in designing regenerative cultural practices in the face of this reality, and what guides him in his work to the present day in spite of this looming predicament we collectively find ourselves in.

In this episode, I speak with Joe Brewer -- complexity researcher, cognitive scientist, and evangelist for the field of culture design. We discuss the social, economic, and ecological collapse we are currently in the midst of as a result of the destructive impacts of human industrial activity and the cultural value systems that uphold these practices. We also discuss Joe's work in designing cultural evolution through "regenerative hubs" -- bioregional centers designed to implement the process of healing and mending humanity's relationship with the living planet and establish a right role within the planet's living systems on the local and global level. In this discussion, Joe lays out what it means to design culture — “to cultivate the capacities to intentionally guide social change using the best combinations of science, technology, organizational management, and artistic expression.”✧ Joe discusses the growing and well established base of knowledge and practices already in place to facilitate the development of cultural value systems that promote healthy and regenerative systems in human societies and their relationship with the land — whether that be in farming practices and food production, the use and distribution of resources and economic practices, the cultivation of healthy human relationships and collective decision-making practices, and the dissolution of regressive and oppressive institutions and systems of control expressed in the dominant paradigm currently. As the global economic, social, and ecological systems continue to collapse, what role can we play in developing regenerative practices that can heal the damage wrought in the pursuit of economic growth? Joe understands fully that we have entered into ecological overshoot, and that we very likely are witnessing not only the collapse of our global civilization, but also the end of the human species as a result of abrupt climate change and widespread ecological collapse. I ask Joe to clarify and elaborate on his work in designing regenerative cultural practices in the face of this reality, and what guides him in his work to the present day in spite of this looming predicament we collectively find ourselves in. We discuss this and more in this episode. Joe Brewer has a background in physics, math, philosophy, atmospheric science, complexity research, and cognitive linguistics.

Joe Brewer is on a mission to secure the existence of a complex thriving global civilization in 100 years. In this inaugural episode we discuss the following: -The deep psychology and cultural evolution practices that are required for systemic social change. -The illusion of separation and how to liberate ourselves personally and culturally from the stories that enslave us. -Becoming a resilient culture in the face of planetary ecocide. Joe is a culture designer working to help create large-scale behavior change at the level of global civilization and is doing so by combining his unique background in physics, math, philosophy, atmospheric science, complexity research, and cognitive linguistics. Joe also shares his own journey towards resilience which began in rural Missouri. He is an internationally renowned public speaker, thought leader, and founding member of the Cultural Evolution Society.

A Culture Designed for All Introducing Joe Brewer and Evonomics Looking back through history you could find many examples of capitalism running amuck. There are even recent examples of those with money and power abusing those with less.   This week's guest sees a massive global change coming and hopes he might be able to inspire a cultural design.  Joe Brewer is the co-founder and editor of Evonomics magazine, a research director for TheRules.org and a coordinator for the newly forming Cultural Evolution Society. Joe is a complexity researcher and also an evangelist for the field of cultural design and he hopes to see a transition in society to sustainability. Check out this episode to see why we are where we are in society, how things could change and what that would take in a very interesting episode of the Boiling Point.   In this episode Greg tells us how he sold his cottage with national exposure by “hacking the system”. Greg describes Joe as the ultimate culture hacker. Joe tells us how he became interested in cultural design. Greg tells us how he and Joe first met. Joe tells us why there needs to be an evolution in our current economic system. We learn how the model of economics we have now is based on good ideas that were coopted and other stupid assumptions. We also hear how certain stories and institutions hold up our system. We also learned how an important picture taken decades ago served as an important hack on our stories of separation. Joe dives into a time in the evolution of modern economics called the enclosure movement and how this has led us astray. We learn how co-ops and b-corps are taking us to a more balanced place. We hear how we are at a crux in our culture, which could lead to either a breakdown or a renaissance. We also learn that there is a biological basis for empathy and how the simplest culture hack is to just smile at people.    Links - Joe on Twitter - Joe on Facebook - Joe on Linked In - Joe on Medium - Evonomics Magazine - ChangeStrategistForHumanity.com - TheRules.org   Learn more about your ad choices.

Today’s guest proves that some people can transform a quirky hobby into a profitable business. Joe Brewer reached out to me with his story a few weeks ago.  His quirky hobby is arcade and pinball repairs and restoration. Salvaging an old, abadoned Ms. Pac Man arcade machine turned into a hobby of restoring vintage arcade and pinball machines which were found through Craigslist, online forums, or simply word of mouth. Joe has such a passion for this that he even has a full-blown arcade – Brewer's Arcade, it’s called -  in his home that you can actually visit. It’s open to the public a couple times per year. To date, he’s made a profit flipping games that he has restored and then sold and makes extra income running a YouTube channel, Brewers Arcade, which specializes in left handed guitars and you guessed it, arcade games! A little financial background on Joe - He and his wife live an anti-debt and fairly frugal lifestyle – their only debt is a mortgage where they make extra payments when possible.  They both live within 2 miles of their jobs and save money by either walking or biking to work.  Joe was even able to start a program at his office that pays employees a small stipend to take alternative transportation to work. Joe and his wife’s lifestyle are an example of how you can find unique ways to make extra cash to pay down debt and hopefully, retire at an early age.

The essence of complete liberty is mutual respect of persons and property If people in government really wanted to help people, they wouldn't do "business" at the point of a gun (the mafia with a flag) For statists, freedom is passe One damn fine statist automobile: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabant Uber Czar to be Renamed by Jennifer Kerfuffle http://manhattancapital.blogspot.com/2009/02/uber-czar-to-be-renamed.html The drug war has been greatly successful in destroying individual rights Shooting socialistic/fascistic fish in a barrel... Ending the Hidden Agenda Behind Tax Cuts by Joe Brewer http://www.truthout.org/021709R Liberals/progressives and conservatives are basically two statist peas in the pod of authoritarian sociopathy What is one thing that government (aka a legalized coercive monopoly) does better than any business in the marketplace? Perhaps public relations! A coercive monopoly imposes the lowest quality product/service at the highest possible price The various euphemisms of taxation... People don't need others to impede their trade--or take a cut of it; statists aren't needed It boils down to the productive people versus the parasites Should freedom be free? Of course You don't need representation: You represent yourself every day via the money you make, save, and spend Presidents merely posture and pretend to have authority The number one goal of authoritarian sociopaths is to control productive people; if it weren't for their pr scheme, they'd be shamed out of their "jobs" Key question: If what those in government provide is so valuable, why don't they provide it in a voluntary manner (i.e., without pointing guns at people and coercing them)? Words such as "must" and "require" simply reflect the ideology of violence The people who are attracted to governmental service are most interested in controlling others Gangsters and banksters run together; they're part of the same tribe in which legislation creates economic disasters, which subvert personal responsibility Progressives et al forward governmental solutions to government-created problems If you consider yourself a moral person, and you think that the institution of government is good, then you really need to check your contradictory premises Just because people comply and toss ballots in a box, doesn't mean they're not being coerced Citizens and states are legal fictions, arbitrary constructs that enslave individuals The nature of the (future) profit-driven health care system, versus the statist status quo with shoddy service and high prices Coercion is anti-reason and anti-life Statism is the philosophy of death bumper music "United States of "Whatever" (Bush Remix)" by Liam Lynch, directed by Jerry Gilio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3XiW9goo1U to comment, please go to http://completeliberty.com/magazine/category/91697
