In this episode, I speak with Dark Mountain Project co-founder and writer Dougald Hine. We discuss his new writing series Notes From Underground, published weekly at Bella Caledonia, that explores "the deep context of the new climate movements that have surfaced since mid-2018."

In this discussion, we explore this uncharted territory that we have collectively entered into, to which Dougald has rightfully defined as “some kind of initiatory process.” What does it mean, in a time of compounding and accelerating crises (climatologically, ecologically, socially), to undergo a process of initiatory rites? For those of us that are cognizant of the general spirit of the times we are in, what can we do to provide the resources, spaces, and structures to further grapple with the “dark material we were carrying all along?” Dougald and I explore this territory in this episode.
