This week rounds out Earth Month and I am talking with writer and conservationist Lydia Millet. Her new book, We Loved it All, takes you on a journey through her childhood and yours at the same time. It's more than a memoir though. It's a gift, a gift full of stories about how other animals are part of the fabric of our lives.
We talk about many things in this episode, from her work at the Center for Biological Diversity and the attention needed on rapid loss of biodiversity to how stories connect us to each other and the personhood movement for other species.
Join this interesting, thought-provoking, and engaging conservation and drop a comment if you have a perspective you'd like to share.
You can pick up a copy of Lydia's book anywhere that books are sold but support local book shops by ordering your copy from Bookshop
