Matt Crawford speaks with author Neil King Jr. about his book, American Ramble: A Walk of Memory and Renewal. A desire to walk from Washington D.C, to New York City began as a whim and then quickly formed into an obsession for King. By the spring of 2021 amongst the backdrop of one of the most pivotal years in our country, it was time to take that walk. A 26-day journey to places that tell some of this nation's story, King also embraces the ramble and the happenstance meetings with his fellow citizens. A salve against our current climate and maybe a path to remembering our better angels, this is a book that is sure to stir its reader. I hope you will take the journey as well.

A stunning, revelatory memoir about a 330-mile walk from Washington, D.C., to New York City-an unforgettable pilgrimage to the heart of America across some of our oldest common ground. Neil King Jr.'s desire to walk from Washington, D.C., to New York City began as a whim and soon became an obsession. By the spring of 2021, events had intervened that gave his desire greater urgency. His neighborhood still reeled from the January 6th insurrection. Covid lockdowns and a rancorous election had deepened America's divides. Neil himself bore the imprints of a long battle with cancer. Determined to rediscover what matters in life and to see our national story with new eyes, Neil turned north with a small satchel on his back and one mission in mind: To pay close attention to the land he crossed and the people he met. What followed is an extraordinary 26-day journey through historic battlefields and cemeteries, over the Mason-Dixon line, past Quaker and Amish farms, along Valley Forge stream beds, atop a New Jersey trash mound, across New York Harbor, and finally, to his ultimate destination: the Ramble, where a tangle of pathways converges in Central Park. The journey travels deep into America's past and present, uncovering forgotten pockets and overlooked people. At a time of mounting disunity, the trip reveals the profound power of our shared ground. By turns amusing, inspiring, and sublime, American Ramble offers an exquisite account of personal and national renewal-an indelible study of our country as we've never seen it before. King says of his memoir, "I couldn't be prouder of American Ramble as a book that revives a faded tradition In American travel writing that weaves travelogue with memoir and history and, yes, even some philosophy. It is a quiet, very personal book, but at the same time wide open and welcoming to any reader. It says: 'Come on a long walk with me. Let's talk.'"

A 330 mile-walk from Washington, D.C. to New York City. That's what journalist Neil King decided to embark on in the spring of 2021. The idea started as a whim – but developed into an obsession. Recently recovered from a long bout with esophageal cancer and having watched the country become increasingly divided, King came to see the journey as a pilgrimage of sorts – a tour through our country's past and present, and an opportunity for him to reconnect with what matters in life. He documented his trip in a new book titled, “American Ramble: A Walk Of Memory And Renewal.”

SUMMARY In this episode of The Carbon Connection, we are exploring the climate impact of flying with hosts Neil King and Natalie Muller. The airline industry is responsible for 3.5% of greenhouse gas emissions. If trends continue, airlines could contribute 25% of CO2 emissions by 2050. And the fact that more than 80% of the population has never been on an airplane, emphasizes that flying is a privilege. For the 20% of us who have flown this carbon belongs to us.  16 million planes take off every year– and the number is expected to increase year over year. So it is unlikely humans will stop flying. What, then, are the solutions? Our host Neil King explores this issue with Thomas Fowler the director of sustainability at Ryan Air, Lauren Riley the director of global environmental affairs at United Airlines, Magdalena Heuwieser, a campaigner for the Stay Grounded Network to promote alternative transportation, and Dietrich Brockhagen, the CEO and founder of Atmosfair, a carbon offset program.  From these varied viewpoints, we learn about the airlines' strategies to minimize their impact– including the use of alternative fuels and more efficient planes; a campaign to encourage people to find alternative, less polluting transportation; and a non-profit that helps passengers offset the carbon from their flights while funding renewable energy programs.   This episode is a must for anyone considering air travel in the near future. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/is-it-time-to-rethink-air-travel/id1474805073?i=1000569268981 (On the Green Fence) https://www.dw.com/en/on-the-green-fence-a-deep-dive-into-the-environment/a-48670967 (Deutsche Welle) https://thecarbonalmanac.org (https://thecarbonalmanac.org) https://thecarbonalmanac.org/757/ (Climate Change Actions From Large to Small) https://thecarbonalmanac.org/for-short-trips-trains-are-about-as-fast-as-airplanes/ (Daily Difference) CONTRIBUTORS Special Acknowledgment:  Neil King and Natalie Muller, hosts of On The Green Fence, in association with Deutsche Welle.

For the 20% of us who have flown this carbon belongs to us.  16 million planes take off every year– and the number is expected to increase year over year. So it is unlikely humans will stop flying. What, then, are the solutions? Our host Neil King explores this issue with Thomas Fowler the director of sustainability at Ryan Air, Lauren Riley the director of global environmental affairs at United Airlines, Magdalena Heuwieser, a campaigner for the Stay Grounded Network to promote alternative transportation, and Dietrich Brockhagen, the CEO and founder of Atmosfair, a carbon offset program.  From these varied viewpoints, we learn about the airlines' strategies to minimize their impact– including the use of alternative fuels and more efficient planes; a campaign to encourage people to find alternative, less polluting transportation; and a non-profit that helps passengers offset the carbon from their flights while funding renewable energy programs.   This episode is a must for anyone considering air travel in the near future. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/is-it-time-to-rethink-air-travel/id1474805073?i=1000569268981 (On the Green Fence) https://www.dw.com/en/on-the-green-fence-a-deep-dive-into-the-environment/a-48670967 (Deutsche Welle) https://thecarbonalmanac.org/ (https://thecarbonalmanac.org) https://thecarbonalmanac.org/757/ (Climate Change Actions From Large to Small) https://thecarbonalmanac.org/for-short-trips-trains-are-about-as-fast-as-airplanes/ (Daily Difference) CONTRIBUTORS Special Acknowledgment:  Neil King and Natalie Muller, hosts of On The Green Fence, in association with Deutsche Welle.

Animal agriculture is one of the biggest contributors to global climate emissions. But what about hunting? Does shooting and eating wild game skirt the complicated ethics and emissions connected with eating factory farmed animals? In this episode, a vegetarian-turned-hunter brings two reporters into a forest in Germany, in search of sustainable  meat. Not only is it an interesting conversation from a climate perspective, it's also a fascinating glimpse into the differences between hunting culture in the United States and Germany. This story comes from our friends at On The Green Fence, a podcast about environmental issues.
