Robert Jensen | Embracing Limits With Ecospheric Grace

In this episode with Robert Jensen, retired journalism professor, prolific author, and life-long social and environmental justice advocate, we discuss his latest book An Inconvenient Apocalypse: Environmental Collapse, Climate Crisis, and the Fate of Humanity that he co-authored with his colleague and elder, and Land Institute’s co-founder Wes Jackson. Against the backdrop of cascading ecological and social crises of subjugation of people and nature under the dominion of patriarchy, capitalism, imperialism, and anthropocentrism, we engage in a humbling dialogue about what it would mean for us to grapple with difficult questions and to consciously embrace limits, as a pathway to a more graceful and meaningful co-existence with Nature.
