Some of today’s most topical issues polarise people. In Who Cares Wins with Lily Cole, Lily invites guests with different perspectives to explore critical issues - from technology, food, to mental health and capitalism - and their relationship to the environment.
The podcast emerged from the research Lily did for her book ('Who Cares Wins: A Thousand How to Protect the Planet You Love: A thousand ways to solve the climate crisis: from tech-utopia to indigenous wisdom')
Season One explores the topics explored in Lily's book of the same name - inviting different perspectives into each thematic episode.
Season Two explores the intersections between sustainability and gender issues - exploring different perspectives across the season.
Season Three looks at the connections between our inner landscapes (mindsets) and outer landscapes.

On Inner Landscapes, Growth and 'Enough' : Kate Raworth & Sister True D
Season 3 of Who Cares Wins offers a triptych of episodes that all explore how our inner landscapes shape our outer landscapes.
In episode one, Lily speaks with pioneering economist Kate Raworth and Sister True Dedication. Kate is the author and creator of Doughnut Economics: an economic model that balances between essential human needs and planetary boundaries. Sister True D is a Zen Buddhist nun ordained by Vietnamese peace activist and monastic Thich Nhat Hanh (known affectionately by students as 'Thay'). Sister True D is a former journalist, Cambridge graduate and edited several of Thich Nhat Hanh's books including 'Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet.'
In this episode, Kate, Sister True D and Lily discuss the nature of humanity, the nature of reality, and how Zen concepts such as Inter-Being might be applied to the cultural assumptions that lie underneath our economic and political realities. -
