In this episode of Care More Be Better, we compile our prior coverage of the first three chapters of Paul Hawken’s Regeneration: Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation. Focused on Oceans, Forests, and Wilding, in one refined episode. These chapters highlight how we can restore Earth’s ecosystems and regenerate Earth through vital ecosystems.

🌊 Oceans – The blue heart of our planet absorbs vast amounts of carbon, but pollution, overfishing, and acidification are pushing marine ecosystems to their limits. We discuss solutions like marine protected areas, regenerative ocean farming, and the power of kelp in carbon sequestration.

🌳 Forests – Our planet’s lungs are in crisis due to deforestation and degradation. Paul Hawken presents a vision for reforestation, agroforestry, and indigenous land stewardship as powerful tools to reverse climate damage. We break down key case studies and actionable insights from this chapter.

🦋 Wilding – Nature thrives when given the space to heal. Rewilding efforts, from Europe’s expansive wildlife corridors to North America’s prairie restoration projects, show us how restoring biodiversity can enhance climate resilience. We explore success stories and how individuals and communities can get involved.

🌎 Why This Matters:

Regeneration isn’t just a concept—it’s a movement. These chapters remind us that nature holds the solutions we need, and it’s up to us to work with it. Whether it’s through ocean conservation, forest restoration, or rewilding landscapes, everyone has a role to play in healing our planet.
