Safe, clean air is something many of us have long taken for granted. With new immediacy, we’re suddenly aware that everything — right down to the air we breathe — is shared by all life on Earth. Scientifically, there is no line between us and air. It is in us and flowing through our bodies. We are air. 

In Season 1 of The David Suzuki Podcast, “COVID-19 and the Basic Elements of Life,” David and guests explore how the pandemic can help us refocus on what’s most important, and what a green and just recovery from COVID-19 could look like. They return to the fundamentals to help us seize this unique opportunity to rediscover our place on this beautiful living planet. 

The season’s second episode explores the theme “Air” and features conversations with Wellesley Institute CEO Kwame McKenzie, former Toronto chief city planner Jennifer Keesmaat and the David Suzuki Foundation’s Gideon Forman. 

You can help make sure we seize this unprecedented opportunity to build back a better world by urging Ottawa to advance a green and just recovery from COVID-19. Visit davidsuzuki.org/green-and-just-recovery/
