In this week’s episode our guests share what a permaculture for the arts could look like. What does it really mean to think environmentally, to “green” the arts, to create an environmentally conscious community? We hear from HeatherEllen Strain and Caite Clark, who were part of the team that brought “Tomorrow” to the Fringe in 2019, then from Judi Pearl and Devon Hardy whose initiatives, SCALE and Creative Green Tools, are providing tools for artists to think environmentally, and from Nalo Soyini Bruce and Sophie Gee who imbue their creative work with sustainability. Featuring a story by Amy Blackmore.
