On this edition of Your Call, environmental journalist Jason Dove Mark discusses his new book The Earth Said Remember Me: How to Revive Our Memories and Restore the Planet. He says that as the climate emergency worsens and biodiversity shrinks, we are increasingly adapting to this new normal and sleepwalking towards disaster.
Tonight, Jason will be in conversation with Annie Leonard, former Executive Director of Greenpeace USA, in an event moderated by Earth Island Journal editor Maureen Nandini Mitra, at the David Brower Center in Berkeley from 6-7:30pm.
What will it take to energize the environmental movement before it’s too late?
Guests:
Jason Dove Mark, environmental journalist, former editor-in-chief of SIERRA magazine, former editor of Earth Island Journal, author of The Earth Said Remember Me: How to Revive Our Memories and Restore the Planet
