Joining me in the episode to discuss her new book - The Story is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis - is Osprey Orielle Lake, Founder and Executive Director of Women's Earth & Climate Action Network, International, known as WECAN. In this hopeful book, Osprey asserts that the dominant worldview—described as capitalist, colonialist, patriarchal, and extractive—is the main culprit for environmental destruction. Osprey skillfully weaves history, mythology, anthropology, climate and earth science, sociology, and spirituality to illustrate the central message: Capitalism and colonialism have gotten us on this path of catastrophic climate change but, as she shares in her book, they can be tranformed. Osprey shows how people all over the world are rising to defend Earth. Her book includes the memory and knowledge of how we can live in balance with nature, which still lives on in Indigenous communities. HIGHLIGHTS: - Origin stories are Spiritual healing for our planet. - What is WECAN - Explain the concept of “Mother Law” - What is the LANDBACK movement? - The dominant cultural worldview.

“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.

“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.
