A huge reason many people travel is to get away from city life and into nature. In Episode 327 of The Thoughtful Travel Podcast we don't just get into nature - we hear about some really rare and unique encounters with the natural world. First up, I chat with Satyajit Das, a veteran of many intriguing wildlife encounters on his travels, who explains how lucky he was in coming across the small cats of South and Central America: ocelots, margays and onchillas. Next, Paul Christie explains something of the history of the sakura or cherry blossom in Japan, and leaves me with the surprising fact that you don't necessarily have to be in Japan in springtime to see the beautiful cherry trees bloom. Finally, Iris Villarreal tells the story of her experience with a nomadic Kazakh ethnic minority in western Mongolia, and in particular, how they train and use eagles for hunting.

This gent who goes by the name of Das is eccentric, passionate, articulate & intelligent so strap in for this fast paced, heady conversation framed through the lens of equal rights for species other than humans to the very resources we are destroying. His voice grins, setting a positive tone & his true love of the natural world is just a tad intoxicating.We leap from the truth that adaptability trumps strength for resilience. We quip about how the finance sector is filled with animals,  we both agree that animals are more sensible than human beings - they don't go about destroying the landscape that keeps them alive & we ponder how we came to be a culture that thinks we can click our way out of the quandary we find ourselves in. We ask if you're suffering from 'Prognostic Miopia' where you are so focussed on the near term things you don't connect with the real long term consequences of our actions. We suspect the very culture we all swim in, means we all suffer & rather than feeling the weight of this, taking the approach of finding our own, individual ways to swim out of it. It covers a lots and its a cracker! Links You'll LoveAldo Leopold - The Sand County AlmanacWild Quests by DasBarry Lopez - Arctic DreamsLoved this Ep….Listen to:- Damon Gameau - Dan Palmer - Helena Norberg Hodge  Support the ShowCasual Support - Buy Me A CoffeeRegular Support - PatreonBuy the Book - Futuresteading - Live Like tomorrow mattersShow NotesDefining what it means to be human through studying animals Coming face to face with a grizzly bear in AlaskaFailing our natural world as its guardianOur need for 1.7 earths"Human eyes need more pixels than there are in the universe to capture the beauty of some animals"Going to the root cause of the problems rather than bandaid-ingHuman beings as mere hosts for bacteria & virusesThe danger of our reliance on tech"Humans address every problem with Paleolithic emotions, medievil institutions & godlike technology - a dangerous recipeReading your landscapeEntering the phase of populism for answersMoving our problems into the future"Ultimately the worth of our species will be measured by our acceptance of our true role within the complex web that is life"Support the show

Send me a messageSatyajit Das - or Das - is a man who's worn many hats. Financier, author, traveller, speaker - a strenuous protagonist for evidence and fact. He's a man who wants to understand and take into account the reality of a situation and to look deeply into the meaning of that information, no matter how confronting, surprising or alarming.Das came to Australia from India in the late 70s, and a career in banking followed, until he had some unexpected life changing expeditions in nature - one in Zaire, now Congo, and the other Antarctica, which seems to have altered his relationship to work and living. He famously predicted the impending global financial crisis in 2006, before being named as one of finance's most influential thinkers by Bloomberg. He's written a tonne of books along the way, and he's on the show today to talk about his most recent - 'Wild Quests'.I really enjoyed this book, and I have been affected by its contents as well as Das' previous work, especially that of Banquet of Consequences. Under all of our technological progress are worldviews and stories that we are still above and apart from nature, that we can elevate and innovate our way out of whatever the latest dilemma or disaster is. This book tells of the heart wrenching ways by which eco-tourism is negatively affecting remaining pristine landscapes, continuing to drive up emissions through al the travel time and with uncertain and unclear local social and economic benefits.Wild Quests is a wake up call for how we think of travel, on the whole notion of bucket lists. It forced me to reckon with my own desires and aspirations for visiting some of the world's most lauded landscapes - Patagonia, Alaska, African plains, and Australia's natural landscapes. There are so many places to go, so many options, perhaps though, we need to contemplate the potential and known harms of these trips. Real action on addressing the climate crisis, reversing land degradation and restoring the habitats and lives of non human species requires more than flawed economic models and possessive incursions into the lives of Indigenous inhabitants. Wild Quests starts with the line - “the animals do not want to see us”. What if we did that - what if we just left nature to be nature, to be wild and precious and to just exist without our incursions. As it has for almost forever, free of humanity and all we bring?Not an easy idea, but Das is in the business of raising these types of ideas and prosecuting them comprehensively.Das is generously offering Finding Nature listeners a discount on his book Wild Quests that forms much of this conversation. Head to Monash University publishing website and buy the book, and for 20% off use the code birdlife20 - all one word.Das's work has quite literally been informed by that of Scottish novelist Robert Louis Stevenson, and one of his famous lines is that sooner or later everyone has to sit down to a banquet of consequences - it's fair to say whether or not it's the loss of pristine wilderness, the expanding climate crisis or the disaster that is housing in this country, it might be time to take a seat.Until next time, thanks for listening.

This podcast is a big exploration of several important topics of our times (Das hates the word ‘conversation' and shares why in the show) People feel jaded seeing injustices inflicted on people, from corporate to political to personal, without a sense of real accountability for actions taken and how that's impacting everything from polarization to lack of success in environmental care and regeneration. The corporatisation of not-for-profits and climate change are feeding into many people's scepticism that the policies and solutions being tabled will get us results. Wild Animals and Das' book “Wild Quests” to help remind us what needs our attention and witness. Why “Donate $1 a day to save the Koala/Nature reserve/World” is not working. Living with our own contradictions - impossible to escape if we want to unite over what will make a difference. Das isn't here to give people comfortable ‘off ramps' and this was definitely a thought provoking hour exploring things we're all often thinking about, also often despairing over the state of, and yet never moving forward and we aim to light a fire or remind us to find our overlaps and common ways to move forward.

In the latest episode of the New Money Review podcast I'm delighted to welcome Satyajit Das, a former investment banker, derivatives expert and author.His book “Traders, Guns and Money”, published in 2006, remains one of the best books ever written about the world of high finance.It's been called “a wickedly comic exposé of the culture, games and pure deceptions played out every day in trading rooms around the world. And played out with other people's money.”Das went on to publish “Extreme Money” and “The Age of Stagnation”, in which a common theme is the high global levels of debt.In the podcast, Das talks in detail about debt and the complexities of measuring it. He says all financial markets are now at risk from excessive leverage. Japan, whose currency has recently undergone a big devaluation, may point the way ahead for all of us, he says.We discuss:Why debt is like heroinHow the marginal productivity of debt has been fallingReaching the “trust moment” in government bond marketsHow vulnerable are US Treasuries to a liquidity crisis?Why inflation may be higher for longer……and interest rates could overshoot expectationsDebt on debt and the challenge of understanding leverageHow tech entrepreneurs borrow against equityComplexities in leverage chains—the example of GreensillWhy non-bank financing of debt is particularly riskyWhy regulators struggle to monitor shadow banksCross-border exposures in the Evergrande bankruptcyWhy the “usual disinfectants”—better disclosure and more capital—no longer workHow Japan finally escaped its debt trapWhy sovereign wealth funds are buying up global infrastructureThe end of financial engineering

Today the human race faces existential challenges. Our prosperity has been built on unsustainable economic and environmental practices — but our social and political processes seem incapable of fixing anything. Why are we unable to even acknowledge the truth of our predicament? Chaired by Rebecca Huntley Satyajit Das is a former financier.

In September 2014, Bloomberg included him as one of the 50 most influential people in international finance.

He is the author of Traders, Guns & Money: Knowns and Unknowns in the Dazzling World of Derivatives (2006) and Extreme Money: The Masters of the Universe and the Cult of Risk(2011). His latest book is A Banquet of Consequences: Have We Consumed Our Own Future? (2015).

The U.S. spends 8 percent of its GDP on finance -- twice the amount it did 40 years ago, according to economist Brad DeLong. That figure set off a wave of soul-searching recently as commentators asked how ``the financialization of the world'' came to be and others attempting to answer that very question. This week, we speak with Satyajit Das about how finance took over the economy, markets and monetary policy. A former banker, trader and corporate treasurer, Das is well-placed to walk us through the development of global financialization and its pitfalls. Along the way we talk bonuses, negative interest rates, home safes and (of course!) alien invasions.

Join host Sally Warhaft, Grattan Institute CEO and policy expert John Daley and influential banker and author Satyajit Das for a conversation about change, market forces and aspirations. The divide between generations is becoming an increasingly apparent faultline in our society. Baby Boomers came of age during an era of unprecedented economic prosperity, but their children have become adults in a set of drastically different circumstances. Over recent decades, we've seen a widening gap between rich and poor, with access to the property market tipped largely in favour of older generations. The workforce has changed drastically, too, with younger people competing in a more fragmented, casualised market – one that discriminates against older workers. Perhaps it's time for us all to reconsider our expectations. Can we continue with an economic model that's predicated on the idea of endless growth? And can we do it while addressing younger generations' environmental concerns and coping with the economic challenges of an ageing population? Do younger Australians even want what the Baby Boomers have had anyway?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
