Outrage + Optimism

55. Inger Andersen and Jane Goodall are All In #ForNature

It's World Environment Day, and what better way to celebrate than with Executive Director of The United Nations World Environment Programme, Inger Andersen. She gives us her optimism about dreaming up the regenerative world filled with biodiversity and a right relationship with nature, as well as her outrage over the social, economic, and racial inequality that pervades our current systems. And while Christiana is away on holiday, Tom and Paul discuss why environmental justice means that black lives matter, and Tom tells us about his newest book, "What Happened When We All Stopped", illustrated by his sister, Bee Rivett-Carnac, and narrated by none other than Dr. Jane Goodall.
