Joining us on the show is the founder and executive director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network, Osprey Orielle Lake! In this conversation, we explore some of the themes of her recent book, ‘The Story Is In Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis'. Namely, we explore how some of the foundational worldviews of Western Culture have contributed to what researchers are calling the environmental polycrisis. We then talk about how we can realistically change these worldviews, the importance of taking a gendered perspective toward the climate crisis, and how connecting to our ancestors helps us connect more firmly with our sense of place.

Mark Bachelder (pictured) orchestrates the community calls for the Foundation for Safe Climate from his home in California, reaching out to the world. I met Mark by chance and in an illustration of how small the world is, he and a recent guest on this podcast, Osprey Orielle Lake, know each other well. Mark is interested in climate matters and sees much of the solution to the present dilemma to be found through conversation and during our chat, I alerted him to the six-week series being organized by the Melbourne-based Conversation at the Crossroads - "Ethics in Turbulent Times: How to Bring Society to Higher Ground".

Osprey Orielle Lake (pictured) is passionate and committed to navigating through the "keyhole" of opportunity we have to avoid the worst of the climate crisis. Osprey founded "The Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN)", international, and through that organisation engages women and feminists across the gender spectrum worldwide in policy advocacy, on-the-ground projects, direct action, training, and movement building for global climate justice. Her award-winning book, "The Story is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis" expands on what Osprey does with WECAN. Osprey is a busy woman and among other responsibilities helps humanity avoid the worst of this "poly-crisis", she sits on the steering committee of "The Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative".

My guest today, Osprey Orielle Lake, speaks clearly about the limits and possibilities of this moment on our planet. In this conversation, we talk about how dominant culture needs to shift in order for us to respond more intelligently to what the Earth is communicating to us. We also discuss women's role in this work, Indigenous leadership, and exciting possibilities happening in the climate justice movement. About Osprey: Osprey Orielle Lake is the founder of Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN), an organization whose mission is to protect and defend the planet, particularly through the work of women who have typically been unheard and undervalued by policymakers.

Today I'm delighted to be joined by Osprey Orielle Lake, author of: The Story is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis & Founder of the Women's Earth & Climate Action Network. As Einstein stated: “We can't solve a problem with the same mind that created it” & In this thought provoking conversation, Osprey encourages us to reflect on our society, to travel upstream to consider the dominant worldviews of our time & how they evolved to lead our society to where we now stand surrounded by multiple interlocking crisis. It is a journey that requires us to come with courage, open minds & hearts, but that is critical in ensuring we equip ourselves with a new mind, set free of the dominant worldviews of dominion over land & nature, patriarchy, colonialism & racism that have created the challenges we must now resolve. Osprey's life work supporting & advocating for the rights of Indigenous people's around the world shows that change is already happening. There are courageous people who are holding a vision for a different worldview which is already helping to create encouraging changes through powerful initiatives like Rights For Nature. Osprey shares many stories of the brave women who have stood up to large corporations & governments around the world to defend nature, their ancestral lands & sovereignty, ultimately for the benefit of us all, as 80% of all bio-diversity left on Earth is currently stewarded by Indigenous people's on Indigenous lands. To all of you, who have braved punishment & persecution, I dedicate this episode to you with my heartfelt thanks for your courage & determination in the face of adversity, I hope this message encourages others to use our voices as we remember our role as a keystone species under who's stewardship nature can thrive.Learn more about OspreyFounder & executive director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN), Osprey Orielle Lake works internationally with grassroots, BIPOC & Indigenous leaders, policymakers, & diverse coalitions to build climate justice, resilient communities, & a just transition to a decentralized, democratized clean-energy future.She sits on the executive committee for the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature & on the steering committee for the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.

We welcome Osprey Orielle Lake, Founder and Executive Director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) [https://www.wecaninternational.org/] to discuss her recent book The Story is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis. It is a prescient time to return to Nature. To remember and act from ancestral, cosmological worldviews, indigenous perspectives and understandings about life that will foster the re-emergence and continuance of regenerative, Earth-centered communities for future generations. Many listeners are long familiar with the root causes behind the devastation of our times: ecologically, socially, even spiritually. Climate collapse is a symptom of our disconnection from Nature and how we have abandoned our original reciprocal relationship with Mother Earth. The Story is in Our Bones opens a portal to Indigenous cosmology and the collective knowledge of Earth-centered cultures that uplift restoration and justice. By weaving together ecological, mythical, political, and cultural understandings and her life experiences working alongside global leaders, systems-thinkers, climate justice activists, and Indigenous Peoples, Osprey Lake summons a new way of being and thinking in the Anthropocene that opens our capacity to transform the wake of colonialism, racism, patriarchy, capitalism, and ecocide into thriving Earth communities for all. Invoking the memory of our Earth lineages can help us usher and dream in the world we wish to see. Our is a time for both grieving and stepping forward to collectively participate in the Ancient Future rising. The Story is in Our Bones invites us to enact and embody a relational, Earth-conscious understanding of respect, reciprocity and regeneration. It is already here now, in the making.

Once in a while, a book comes along that changes how we see the world, that re-sets something fundamental in who we are and our capacity to engage with the Web of Life.  Braided Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer was one of these: at once poetically beautiful, spiritually inspiring and deeply thought-provoking. And now Osprey Orielle Lake has written 'The Story is in our Bones: How Worldview and Climate Justice can Remake a World in Crisis'.  This is a genuinely beautiful book on every level: full of living mythology, opening doors to how the bones of our language make the world around us, offering other perspective, other ways of being, living stories of where we came from and who we are and who we could be.  It's deeply honouring of Indigenous wisdom from around the world, and of the struggle of all those who suffer most and have done least to unleash the poly crisis that is so obviously impacting our world. The author is an extraordinary person, founder and executive director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) which was created to accelerate a global women's movement for the protection and defense of the Earth's diverse ecosystems and communities. She sits on the executive committee for the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature whose goal is to 'transform our human relationship with our planet' and on the steering committee for the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty, which is modelled on the Nuclear non-proliferation treaties of the last millennium, and seeks to manage a global transition to safe, renewable and affordable energy for all. In short, she works internationally with grassroots, BIPOC and Indigenous leaders, policymakers, and diverse coalitions to build climate justice, resilient communities, and a just transition to a decentralized, democratized clean-energy future. This is one of those conversations that dived deep into the heart of what really matters - how we bring ourselves to a place of genuine connection with the Web of Life  - in time - and in ways that will create the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.  We could have talked for hours, and I have no doubt we'll come back again, but in the meantime, please enjoy the many layers of being and belonging that Osprey brings to all her work.

And that healing is key to how we're going to really unwind the perilous moment that we face right now. How do we reconnect with the natural world?

“There's a wide range of reasons that we really need to understand the root causes of a lot of our social ills and environmental ills. I think we need to continue to come back to this question of how we heal this imposed divide between the natural world and human social constructs. And that healing is key to how we're going to really unwind the perilous moment that we face right now. How do we reconnect with the natural world? Not just intellectually, but in a very embodied way.”Osprey Orielle Lake is the Founder and Executive Director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) International dedicated to accelerating a global women's climate justice movement. She works nationally and internationally with grassroots and Indigenous leaders, policy-makers and scientists to promote climate justice, resilient communities, and a just transition to a decentralized, democratized energy future.
