Guilt of Existence - Finding Peace on a Dying Planet
GoE is for anyone who understands how draining it can be to care about the environment when it seems like no one else gives a crap, for anyone who feels guilty for being human and contributing to the chaos, and for anyone who just wants to know they're not in this alone. The purpose of this podcast is to help people stay positive when environmental efforts seem hopeless, provide guidance on living a more sustainable life, and to shed some light on environmental topics and news that deserve a closer look. Join me for Guilt of Existence and hopefully, together, we can find some peace.
