It can be so easy to become demoralized or even apocalyptic about the state of our planet. Each month, my co-host Sharon Salzberg and I chat with Buddhist practitioners about their work, practice, and everyday life. I’m James Shaheen, editor-in-chief of Tricycle: The Buddhist Review. James Shaheen: Hello and welcome to Life As It Is. We’d love to hear your thoughts about our podcast. You can listen to more of Life As It Is on Spotify, iTunes, SoundCloud, Stitcher, and iHeartRadio. Life As It Is is a podcast series that features Buddhist practitioners speaking about their everyday lives. In today’s episode of Life As It Is, Tricycle’s editor-in-chief James Shaheen and co-host Sharon Salzberg sit down with Hawken to discuss the Buddhist teachings that underpin his activism, the role of reverence in solving the climate crisis, and how he stays motivated in the face of burnout. After all, writes Hawken, if we want to save the world, we have to create a world worth saving. In his new book, Regeneration: Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation, Hawken offers a model of climate activism that puts life at the center of every act and decision.
In fact, Hawken asserts that if we act together, we can end the climate crisis in decades to come. But entrepreneur and activist Paul Hawken believes we have less reason to despair than we think.
