  • #6 - Dr. Jordan Lofthouse - An Economist's Guide to Environmentalism

    In this episode, I speak with Jordan Lofthouse about environmentalism, economics, and the institutions that shape how societies respond to scarcity, growth, and ecological change.

    We discuss the tragedy of the commons, Elinor Ostrom, market-based solutions, the limits of centralized policy, and why many environmental debates are also debates about incentives, knowledge, and human flourishing.

    It is a conversation about whether prosperity and stewardship are truly in conflict, and what a freer, more adaptive approach to environmental challenges might look like.
