  • Practical Ways To Make Your Own Homegrown National Park

    Practical Ways To Make Your Own Homegrown National Park
    2025/10/01
    CLIMATE HOUR – Nature is on everyone’s mind these days. Our news cycle is filled with the latest natural disasters, the latest political battles between preservation and resource extraction. We’re all understandably concerned about how weather is going to effect our homes, our jobs, and how much longer our food systems are going to survive. Humankind doesn’t have a great track record of working with, or being part of nature. Yet, each of us individually can have a positive impact. We can work with nature and create our own park-like preserves in our yards, and communally in our churches, schools and workplaces; create our own personal oases, often with less effort and expense than maintaining a suburban lawn. We can help restore the natural balance between plants and animals, and create our own homegrown national parks where we can live and work in balance with nature. Join host, Bob Grove, and Dr Doug Tallamy to discuss practical ways to make your own homegrown national park. Doug is a professor in the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology at the University of Delaware. He advocates for home gardens and landscaping that bridge the gaps between parks and preserves by providing habitat for native species. Among his awards are the Garden Club of America Margaret Douglas Medal for Conservation, the Tom Dodd Jr. Award of Excellence, and the American Horticultural Society B.Y. Morrison Communication Award. He’s the author of Bringing Nature Home, Nature’s Best Hope, The Nature of Oaks, and his latest book, How Can I Help? Doug is the co-founder of the Homegrown National Parks movement.

  • Degrowth: The Path From Consumerism To Survival

    Degrowth: The Path From Consumerism To Survival
    2025/09/01
    CLIMATE HOUR – Sustainability is about finding life’s balance. Producing enough to satisfy your customers’ needs while earning enough to satisfy the needs of you and your co-workers. In contrast, perpetual economic growth is about a cycle of producing surplus, more than is needed, then using mass marketing to convince people to overconsume. Perpetual economic growth is based on consumerism. Convincing people to buy more than they need. More than is healthy. Fast fashion, fast food, commercial animal farming are all symptoms of the overconsumption required to maintain perpetual economic growth. Overconsumption that leads to poor health and a collapsing environment; to overshooting our planet’s resources and to climate change. The climate crisis is a product of consumerism. And while there are many ways we can profitably lower our personal carbon footprint to reduce global warming and slow the climate crisis, we will never stop climate change until we address our overconsumption; our unsustainable expectations of perpetual economic growth. We need to find life’s balance. To stop overshooting the planet’s resources. We need to degrow our economic expectations and halt consumerism. Join host, Bob Grove, and guests to discuss the Degrowth: The Path From Consumerism To Survival. Guests include: Christopher Marquis, Author and Sinyi Professor of Management, University of Cambridge Jason Barahona Rosales, Program Coordinator, Degrowth Institute William Rees, Author and Professor Emeritus, University of British Columbia Zoharia Drizin, Gen Z Advisory Board, Climate Mental Health Network To learn more, visit … https://chrismarquis.com/ https://www.degrowthinst.org https://apsc.ubc.ca/profile/william-rees https://climatementalhealth.net https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C6JPDD24 View other Climate Hour episodes at www.ClimateHour.net.

  • How Melting Ice Sheets Are Drowning The World

    How Melting Ice Sheets Are Drowning The World
    2025/08/01
    CLIMATE HOUR – Sea level rise may be climate change’s biggest long-term impact. With just today’s 1.2 degree Celsius increase in global temperature, we can expect sea level rise of at least 1-2 meters (3.3-6.6 feet). And that’s our best case scenario. If countries continue to ignore the Paris Climate Accord and temperatures rise 2.5 degrees Celsius, we can expect the collapse of the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets. And that will raise sea level 10-12 meters (40 feet). We’re seeing the affects now. Many of the major roads in the Florida Keys will be underwater this year. Cities like Miami, New Orleans, Bangkok, Amsterdam, Ho Chi Minh City, and Kolkata India, are going to be submerged by 2030. The countries most exposed to rising sea levels are the United States, followed by China, India, Japan, the Netherlands, Thailand, Vietnam, and Bangladesh. In our best case scenario, we can expect a trillion dollars a year in global flood damage. And a quarter-billion people looking for new homes. If we continue to ignore the Paris Climate Accord and warm the planet 2.5 degrees Celsius, we’ll displace over a billion people. That’s 13% of the world’s urban population looking for new homes, food and jobs. The worst case scenario is that we throw caution to the wind. That we revert to full dependence on fossil fuels and melt ALL the world’s ice. That will raise sea levels 60-70 meters (200-233 feet). But at the point, sea level may be the least of our problems.
