In this ClimateGenn episode, I am speaking with Eden Project founder, Sir Tim Smit about the stories that need to be told to create the future we want to have.

Sir Tim sees the now as a moment of great revolution that is emerging from what he calls the new green enlightenment. With world leaders of low-calibre and backward thinking, it is right to ask from whence will these great game-changers emerge?

If you have just got your head around exponential climate change then why not have a go at exponential biosphere healing? With 20th century style aggression erupting in Europe, it will take a leap of great faith and hope to keep the lantern burning in these dark dystopian times.

Some key quotes:

i. “I am at a real sea change with Eden."

iii. “Our disrespect for biology has led to many of the pickles we are now in.”

v. “I know many many top business people who feel they would not like to do anything other than have a shower after they have been with many bankers!”

Vii. “I see us a shop window on a future that is still ours to make!”
