Geo-engineering and the Power of Narrative

From a16z Podcast

with @andersen @omnivorousread @smc90 On making a really wild (quite literally wild;) geo-engineering idea at massive scale real – specifically, bringing back lab-grown woolly mammoths, which was discussed in a 2017 feature by Andersen in The Atlantic (and also discussed in the 2020 documentary with Stewart Brand, We Are As Gods) -- and is still a relevant and active topic today. But the conversation is also about the evergreen power of narrative...

#437 - Daniel H. Pink - How To Overcome Regret

From Modern Wisdom

Daniel Pink is a psychologist, speaker and an author. Regret is the most common negative emotion humans talk about. It's even the second most common overall emotion which we talk about after love. And yet our relationship with it is pretty terrible. Having no regrets is not only a bad tattoo from the 90's but also a philosophy that robs of us valuable insights from life. Expect to learn the most common types of regrets people have in life, whether action or inaction is the cause of most suffering, how Daniel suggests we can grow past our regrets, why never looking backward is limiting our growth, how people believe in both free will and things happening for a reason and much more...

Climate action needs new frontline leadership | Ozawa Bineshi Albert

From TED Talks Daily

We can’t rely on those who created climate change to fix it, says climate justice organizer Ozawa Bineshi Albert. An Indigenous woman living in the heart of oil and gas country in the US, she’s observed an alarming disconnect between empty promises made by corporations and the actual needs of communities on the ground. In this call for urgency and a shift in values, she advocates for climate policy to center frontline leaders and outlines some grassroots-led projects -- from water protection efforts in Minnesota to off-grid solar power in Arizona -- that have already sparked real change.Learn more about our flagship conference happening this April at attend.ted.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.
