#2: In this episode, Brittany sits down with Joseph Merz, the Founder and Chairman of the Merz Institute, to explore the connection between human behavior and the ecological overshoot.
Joseph provides profound insights into the Human Behavioral Crisis and explains how evolutionary behaviors that once benefited us have become detrimental in our crowded, modern world.
They discuss the critical roles of economic growth, marketing, and pronatalism in exacerbating ecological challenges and why current technological solutions often fall short.
Joseph emphasizes the need for effective behavioral interventions and an interdisciplinary emergency response to address the root causes of ecological overshoot rather than merely managing its symptoms.
Join us as they discuss the limitations of awareness alone in driving change and explore the importance of shifting social norms and behaviors.
This episode offers a deep dive into understanding the behavioral dimensions of sustainability and what it will take to create a more sustainable world.
