    Episode 174: Rowan Jacobsen - In Defense of Sunlight

    Rowan Jacobsen writes about science and nature and the less-explored corners of the world for Harper’s, Outside, The Atlantic, Scientific American, Smithsonian, and many other publications. He is the author of nine books, including In Defense of Sunlight. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Jacobsen upends everything you thought you knew about sun exposure, shedding light on a quiet revolution that is transforming our understanding of sunlight’s effects on human health. Outlining the growing case for the importance of modest sun exposure for our health and well-being, citing up-to-date studies on the effects of sunlight on human health, Jacobsen presents a much-needed, lucid assessment of not only what the sun can do for us, but how a lack of sun could actively be harming us. https://www.rowanjacobsen.com/ In Defense of Sunlight book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/In-Defense-of-Sunlight/Rowan-Jacobsen/9781668092163 Listen to Nature Revisited on your favorite podcast apps, on YouTube, or at https://noordenproductions.com Subscribe on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/bdz4s9d7 Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/5n7yx28t Subscribe on Youtube Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/bddd55v9 Podlink: https://pod.link/1456657951 Support Nature Revisited https://noordenproductions.com/support Nature Revisited is produced by Stefan van Norden and Charles Geoghegan.

The proliferation of artificial lighting around the world has created so much light pollution that many of us can no longer see the Milky Way or experience the restful embrace of a natural night. As the dark becomes ever more elusive, it is a critical moment to stop, look up, and consider what we lose with the disappearing stars. https://meganeaves.com https://bookshop.org/p/books/nightfaring-in-search-of-the-disappearing-darkness-megan-eaves-egenes/5978221c68baf133?ean=9780306835360&next=t&next=t Listen to Nature Revisited on your favorite podcast apps, on YouTube, or at https://noordenproductions.com Subscribe on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/bdz4s9d7 Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/5n7yx28t Subscribe on Youtube Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/bddd55v9 Podlink: https://pod.link/1456657951 Support Nature Revisited https://noordenproductions.com/support Nature Revisited is produced by Stefan van Norden and Charles Geoghegan.

    Gabrielle Cerberville aka the "Chaotic Forager" is a foraging educator, community mycologist, and climate advocate. Known for her informative, funny, high-energy social media content, Gabrielle has given keynotes, classes, and forays around the country.
