Better Circles
Welcome to Better Circles, where we bring great people together, to share ideas that are good for the planet. The scary part of change is the unknown. As the world recognises we need urgent climate action, we explore conversations with industry professionals to paint the picture of a truly sustainable world. Every episode we sit down with our deck of conversation starter cards and talk about the things that are making us feel hopeful and inspired.

Kunal’s the Compost (and Kombucha) King of a permaculture farm in India; co-founder and director of All Living Things Environmental Film Festival (ALT-EFF), the largest decentralised film festival in the world; and a service designer tackling waste systems in Melbourne… and that’s not everything!

Katie Falkiner has a note above her desk: "You'll never start a revolution by being dreary." She's woven this approach into her multidisciplinary career that spans writing, systems and city design, and imagining the future of active transport. We had so much fun chatting to Katie about why cycling is both freedom and fun, how sewing is a kind of alchemy, and finding out who she'd name a sandwich after.
No guest this episode, just Fi and Luke hanging out in the comfy chairs and having a chat.
We talk about the power of short feedback loops in making positive change – building your own sense of hope, positivity and ability to have an impact. And how we're each trying create those positive experiences through teaching workshops, making pickles from veggie scraps and turning pants into bags.
We also go down a bit of a rabbit hole ab...

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
