What if the most powerful solution to saving our planet isn’t just innovation or policy — but simply learning how to get along?
"Why Amicability Has a Higher Return on Investment Than Animosity" is a compelling follow-up to "Compete or Collaborate," diving deeper into one essential truth: in the face of global catastrophe, cooperation isn’t just morally right — it’s economically smarter, socially stronger, and existentially necessary.
As climate destabilization accelerates and the planet edges closer to uninhabitability, this podcast asks a critical question: Why do we keep choosing conflict when collaboration is the only way out? With droughts, floods, food shortages, and mass migrations looming, the cost of animosity — between nations, cultures, and even neighbors — is growing unbearable. Meanwhile, the benefits of cooperation, empathy, and shared purpose compound like the best long-term investments.
Told in plain, relatable language, each episode explores how zero-sum thinking and voluntary ignorance are driving us toward transnational collapse — and how a shift toward amicability might be our last, best chance to change course.
This isn’t just a podcast about survival. It’s about reimagining what thriving could look like — if we choose to rise together rather than fall alone.
The future is still unwritten. But how we treat one another will decide the ending.
