032 - Goals vs. Interconnectedness: Lessons from Ireland’s Sitka Spruce Forests


Listen Later

Picking up on the last episode, we explore another avenue around how goalsetting can lead us astray. Ireland is primarily fields and green pastures since their time as colonized land. Now they are planting trees to fulfill a climate goal but not doing so correctly. Ireland's Sitka spruce forests are a quick means to reaching a goal and illustrate how we can become lost by pursuing a goal over a lifestyle. Get ready to rethink your approach to goals and discover the beauty of interconnected living.

Find out how the dominance of Sitka spruce trees disrupts the balance of native biodiversity, showing us the consequences of solely focusing on individual goals. We'll also share insights from the brilliant Tony Robinson, adding a touch of wisdom to our quest for a more balanced and harmonious existence.
