WHY? - Philosophical Discussions About Everyday Life

Monday, August 13 – Part two of five in our series “Why Goes to China.” Today’s episode, with host Jack Russell Weinstein, is called“Environmentalism without Protest.” In the United States, when we think of environmentalism we thing of Greenpeace, demonstrations, and boycotts. But what would environmentalism look like without protests? How can people be inspired to change their ways without petitions and social pressure, and how do you clean up a massive, industrial, over-polluted nation where food safety is a neglected concern? Join WHY? as we continue our exploration of modern China with guests Lynn King and Irving Steel. This episode was recorded live before an audience at the American Cultural Center at the University Shanghai for Science and Technology.
