There are certainly a number of serious issues going on right now, but my search mainly led me back to the sustainability concerns I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkulum.net\/blog\/2021\/10\/10\/weeknote-for-10-10-2021\/\">wrestled with a couple of years ago<\/a>. So I\u2019ve picked up some of my old podcasts again (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkulum.net\/blog\/2021\/10\/17\/weeknote-for-10-17-2021\/\">some here<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkulum.net\/blog\/2021\/10\/31\/weeknote-for-10-31-2021\/\">some more here<\/a>) and engaged my FOMO to hunt for others I might want to follow. A couple of sources turned my attention especially to the idea of ecological overshoot: the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLmU9o-ErVTVxCrVaJvdtjbaNW8l8Wkfrm\">Stockholm Impact\/Week<\/a> conference on sustainability investing, in particular the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4kBoLVvoqVY\">interview with Daniel Schmachtenberger<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/theintercept.com\/2022\/12\/03\/climate-biodiversity-green-energy\/\">this article on conservation<\/a>. So I\u2019m including some podcasts along those lines.
