Greetings to the MAHB Community,
Check out what’s happening:
It’s Earth Month, and this year’s theme is everyone accounted for and everyone accountable (#InvestInOurPlanet.) Download the action toolkit and watch the 2023 Invest In Our Planet Theme Video here.
On April 25, Stanford population ecologist and environmental activist Paul R. Ehrlich discussed his life and work with Stanford Woods Institute Director Chris Field. Until the recording becomes available, read more about Ehrlich in this recent Q&A.
Also, visit the Tree of Action, built by the collaborative website Roots of Resilience, to discover the Tree of Action you’re part of.
Read this month’s blogs on myths and strategies around overpopulation; a psychoanalytical view on how we deceive ourselves amidst the ecological crisis; why community change precedes global change; an art blog by acclaimed photographer and author Stephen Gorman on why we must turn to indigenous peoples for survival, and a dialogue with Dr. Jane O’Sullivan on feeding the world.
Our resources include articles on the delusions of green growth; a list with 42 open-access papers by the Scientists Warning group (including the latest warnings on oceans, radioactive leaks, and tree extinctions); the need to rethink human exceptionalism, and why empathy pays.
Watch actor Alexander Skarsgård interviewing economist Sir Partha Dasgupta (who knows everything) and listen to two new Nate Hagens podcasts with physicist Antonio Turiel on oceans and with climate science fiction author Kim Stanley Robinson.
