Below is episode two, On The Way, Feb 26. This episode describes several examples of empowering young people. Young people have the most to gain from paradigm shift. The School Garden Project, Onondaga Earth Corps, Rachel Carson Academy, the Kelly MIddle School Community Service Class and the Scout's Sustainability Merit Badge ALL teach and promote ideals, values and actions that fit into paradigm shift even though these entities do not mention paradigm shift anywhere on there websites or self descriptions. So the podcast explains what these groups do and put that into a paradigm shift context. I love it!
Below is episode two, On The Ground, Feb 26. This episode is a critique of capitalism and the consumer culture. Starting with several sound bites from the website. Topics include a deconstruct of the mythologies of capitalism - efficiency, informed choice, the magic hand, American exceptionalism. Touch on external costs. A brief history of suburbia to illustrate how economic interests basically shape our economic system and lives. How the military exists to protect the over-consuming American lifestyle.
