Mitchell’s guest this week is University of Arizona Professor Emeritus, Guy McPherson, Ph.D.

Today, Mitchell interviews environmental scientist, Guy McPherson, about the true seriousness of our environmental plight this very moment.  Based on unfiltered science, Guy interprets the findings of global dimming, greenhouse gas overwhelm of our atmosphere and the presence of nuclear power plants throughout the world as painting a very dark future for humankind.

Guy R. McPherson is an American scientist, professor emeritus of natural resources and ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Arizona. He is best known for promoting the idea of near term extinction (NTE), a term he coined about the possibility of human extinction as soon as 2030.

In May 2009, McPherson began transitioning to living on an off-grid homestead in southern New Mexico. McPherson authors a blog called “Nature Bats Last”, that focuses on global apollo earth picclimate change, energy decline and the possibility of imminent human extinction due to the increasing accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. On November 1, 2015, McPherson was interviewed on National Geographic Explorer with host Bill Nye.

Regarding his NTE views, Andrew Revkin in The New York Times said McPherson was an “apocalyptic ecologist … who has built something of an ‘End of Days’ following”.Michael Tobis, a climate scientist from the University of Wisconsin, said McPherson was out of his depth and “is not the opposite of a denialist. He is a denialist, albeit of a different stripe.”

From the point of view of personal and planetary health, we don’t usually think about how politics, local, national and international, impact us.  The effect on our nervous system, immune function, hormonal balance, or mental emotional balance and well-being I’m suggesting, is actually quite profound.  Leadership, in all domains, politics, business especially, requires creating a sense of peace, safety and security for the People.  If not, leaders are not really leaders even if they’ve been voted in, gained electoral advantage or were appointed.  They are placeholders, who can and usually do, harm to the People, until a real leader shows up.  Stress levels rise to an extent that illness and lack of productivity, as well as peace in the family ensue.

Mitchell unpacks this in greater depth in today’s show and how inter-related all sentient beings really are in one majestic and sacred eco-system. Focus will be on Mitchell’s work and book on Sacred Stewardship as the underlying theme of today’s show.

Mitchell’s guest this evening is founder of The Worldwatch Institute and the Earth Policy Institute, world-renowned environmental scientist and author Lester Brown.  Lester’s most recent book Countdown: The World is Running Out of Water is the subject of today’s interview.  The situation's seriousness is known only to a few but needs to be known to everyone..

The Washington Post calls Lester Brown “one of the world’s most influential thinkers.” The Telegraph of Calcutta refers to him as “the guru of the environmental movement.” In 1986, the Library of Congress requested his personal papers noting that his writings “have already strongly affected thinking about problems of world population and resources.”

Brown started his career as a farmer, growing tomatoes in southern New Jersey with his younger brother during high school and college. Shortly after earning a degree in agricultural science from Rutgers University in 1955, he spent six months living in rural India where he became intimately familiar with the food/population issue. In 1959 Brown joined the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Foreign Agricultural Service as an international analyst.

On June 30, 2015, at the age of 81, he stepped down from the Earth Policy Institute and closed the Institute.  In July, 2014, Lester Brown was a guest of Mitchell’s on the Progressive Film Hour, focusing on the film Plan B. Go to: http://abetterworld.tv/lester-brown-film-plan-b.

This week, Mitchell addresses truly what should be considered the most serious issue facing sentient life on the planet amidst dozens of serious issues.  That is Global Warming which is our anthropogenic contribution to accelerating Climate Change.  This is a seriously threatening subject to life itself and so disturbing it makes you want to cry as we damage our precious eco-system on a daily, hourly basis.  The IPCC reports are devastating enough and way too guarded, so say highly reputable environmental scientists, to the extent of being inaccurate.

But then, we’ll look at real solutions to the Global Warming disaster.  Yes, solutions to this complex mess, that could actually create the conditions to reverse Global Warming.  Tune in & learn.
