Each episode we will debate, with a guest, 3 tough world-scale environmental issues that challenge society and individual's currently held beliefs and perceptions https://thepeoplescountryside.co.uk/ Ultimately we want to take the podcast format in-front of a live audience in the form of Environmental Debate Live and Unscripted. With the addition of an experiential art installation and drama components. This will enable the motivation and mobilization of the audience, toward practical actions to help with policy and behavioral changes needed for a more sustainable future, and a valued environment that we are part of and not separate from. New full episodes of the podcast are currently released at 10 am GMT, on Tuesday's and Sunday's. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepeoplescountryside/message

Once again William looks back at a classic installment of the podcast. He listened back to this past episode to see how his point of view may have altered since the recording. This time he's looking back on the chat we had with Dr. Alexandra Morel. Originally released on the 29th October 2019, we explored the following three tough environmental questions … - How would we be acting differently if we recognised nature as a separate/sovereign nation?" Not that we should necessarily, but I would be interested to explore how different or not society might be? - People are working behind the scenes on things like locking away carbon within algal blooms that sink and form rock, and also drilling into rock and storing it there within Limestone etc. Should we be focusing our efforts in these mitigation measures or the processes we as individuals are given to live and work by? Or both? - Is there such a creature as an urban animal? There is a lot of humour in the room, and an openness to really delve deep into each individual question. All three of us make some good points a long the way that we feel stand the test of time. We invite you to listen to this classic episode, and while you do so, we’d like to know how you would answer the questions we pose, and do you agree or not with what we said? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepeoplescountryside/message

Once again William looks back at classic installments of the podcast. He listened back to this past episode to see how his point of view maybe have altered since the recording. This time he's looking back on the chat we had with writer Tom McCulloch. Originally released on the 3rd September 2019, we explored the following three tough environmental questions … - How can we best understand the relationship between the natural world and human technology and development? - What is the practice of the wild? - Is the world better off without us? He chose this particular show as he wanted to listen again to how we answered the questions we each posed. We invite you to enjoy this classic episode, and while you’re listening, we’d like you to think how you would have answered the questions we posed, and do you think we covered the topic and themes we discussed thoroughly? And would you like us to maybe return to one of these questions in the future? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepeoplescountryside/message
