An interview with Peter Taylor, a critical scientist, ecologist and shaman. He and I have been dialoguing for decades, as cousins of the soul, sharing a political-spiritual activist approach to our respective areas of work.

He used to be a scientific adviser to Greenpeace in the 1980s and also to government and United Nations bodies on ecological matters, and he is a detractor in the climate question.

He's also one of the inventors and early advocates of the concept of rewilding, a concept which is now accepted but, thirty years ago, it was an entirely new idea and quite radical. What? Wolves? Beavers? Weeds and scrub? Well, yes.

Peter tells us about heart-centred environmentalism, rewilding the landscape and his research into the solar causes of climate change.

(Apologies for offstage noises!)
