    Douglas Rushkoff: Why big tech won't save the climate

    Douglas Rushkoff is an American writer and columnist, and one of the more daring and original observers of the online era. In this conversation with Adam Carell, Douglas cautions against the techno-utopians who argue that big tech and unbridled entrepreneurialism will solve the climate crisis, while the rest of us just get on with our lives. He also shares his views on the re-spiritualization of the sustainability movement and the joy that resides in grass roots mobilization.   This podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered professional advice.

    Anand Giridharadas and mobilization of the masses for a sustainable future

    Anand Giridharadas is one of America's most prominent and topical thinkers on democracy and change making. He is also an eloquent critic of corporate sustainability and, in his words, completely obsessed with the question of why sustainability development, arguably the world's most rousing and important agenda, fails to galvanize the passions of the general public.   In this episode, Giridharadas discusses why he thinks the masses aren't being moved to partake in to one of the most critical causes of our history, and instead are left feeling like they've only received an invitation to a broccoli party.  Giridharadas is fast becoming one of America's most important voices on the matter of people power, and his remarks should be heeded by all people genuinely invested in movement building for a sustainable future.  This podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered professional advice.

    Introducing Antithesis: Challenging existing corporate sustainability

    Sustainability practitioners care deeply about the world, but this does not mean we are always right in our approaches. The Antithesis Project and the Antithesis Talks Podcast challenges key assumptions behind the prevailing model of corporate sustainability and examines if it is accountable for the unrealized goal of sustainable development.  In this episode co-authors of the Enough report, Adam Carrel and Tanya McKenna, explore why they wrote it, what they've learnt from the global response, and what's next for Antithesis.  This podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered professional advice.
