     Welcome to May, the month that celebrates moms and flowers, wraps up the school year, launches graduates of all ages and stages, and inaugurates summer with its exit. May 1st, or May Day is the second cross-quarter day of the year, traditionally known as Beltane and celebrated as a time of fertility and growth.

    191. Paul Hawken on Carbon, Climate and Connection

    In this conversation with best selling author and activist Paul Hawken, we discuss the reframing of our relationship with nature by moving away from the concept of "othering" ourselves, and more towards the integration of our interconnectedness. Paul speaks of the cultural disconnect, the role of language in shaping our perception of the environment, and how crucial it is to engage directly with the natural world. Hawken's vast experience, including starting the first natural food company (Erewhon) in the U.S. and working with Martin Luther King Jr., as well as his involvement in founding Regeneration and NEXUS, are all a result of a lifetime of pursuing solutions to our climate crisis. He shares how he views carbon and climate change through a lens of interconnectedness and flow rather than as isolated problems. He also talks about his upcoming book, 'Carbon, the Book of Life,' the significance of soil regeneration, societal shifts and the connection between joy and sustainability as well as the power of individual and community action in the face of environmental challenges.

    BONUS: The Slow and Sustainable Kitchen | Part 2

    In Part 2 of the Slow Kitchen Bonus, Mary and Emma discuss ideas for simple, real food prep and their favorite kitchen equipment. They cover the process of making one whole chicken into several nutritious meals, using dried garbanzo beans for a variety of different dishes, and simple but delicious salad ideas. You'll also hear about the use of fermenting for kefir, sourdough and a variety of vegetables. Their go-to kitchen tools include the immersion blender, the Chemex drip coffee maker, a bamboo bread slicer and slow cookers. The goal is to demystify the slow food practices and gradually implement them into your daily life until those techniques are what you'll choose-- because they become the "convenience" foods.
