Save the Planet, Wine Not - Episode 1 Save the Planet, Wine Not

In this episode, Noah Herfort and Timo Marchant take a deep dive into the theme of extractivism - the pervasive practise of treating the planet like a resource to be mined, plundered and depleted without moderation. They explore the origins of this practise, the way it gathered steam (so to speak) at the birth of the industrial revolution, before exploring some of its contemporary manifestations in more depth. The overlaps between environmental and human exploitation under the banner of the extractivist ideology is probed at some length. Sipping on organic Pinot Grigio, Timo and Noah end the episode by examining some alternatives to extractivism.
