Nature Revisited

Jason Allen-Paisant is an award-winning Jamaican poet, writer and academic, based in the UK. His latest work The Possibility of Tenderness is a people’s history of the land, a family saga, and a personal history told through the lens of the 'grung' and plants. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Allen-Paisant recalls his upbringing in rural Jamaica, the plants, people and farmers of his native district, Coffee Grove, and his eventual migration to the UK. He describes how his transformative personal journey of self-actualization in a new country and his inevitable revisiting of the village of his childhood would become the inspiration for The Possibility of Tenderness as a tale of land, environment, the world of plants, and what a rural village can teach us about leisure, land ownership and reclamation today.

During a forty-five-year career in education, he taught at nine schools in four countries, including COBWS from 1979–1982, where he spent summers at Homeplace and winters in the Toronto office. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Luckmann describes the unusual history of the Canadian Outward Bound Wilderness School (COBWS), the adventurous and challenging offerings at the school, and the culmination of a remarkable collection of more than 50 eclectic essays that would become Carry The Flame.

On this episode of Nature Revisited, Roger discusses the topic of his latest book Return of the Bison, which tells the story of how this symbol of the American West was once almost lost to history and of the continuing journey to bring the bison back from the brink.

On this episode of Nature Revisited, Bill brings us up to speed on the current state of renewable energy and the massive, profound benefits it has to offer. Energy from the sun and wind is suddenly the cheapest power on the planet and growing faster than any energy source in history, but the fossil fuel industry and their politicians are desperately fighting to hold this new power at bay. Because it's available to all, solar power is more than just a path out of the climate crisis: it is a chance to reorder the world on saner and more humane grounds.

A Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2020 for explanatory reporting, her work has been anthologized in the Best American Science and Nature Writing series. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Rosanna discusses her book California Against the Sea, and the future of California's vanishing coastline in the face of rising water. The impacts of engineered landscapes, the market pressures of development, and the ecological activism and political scrimmages that have carved California's contemporary coastline are all factors clashing with the escalating effects of climate chaos. Is an equitable refashioning of coastal stewardship possible?

Patricia Ononiwu Kaishian is an author and the curator of mycology at the New York State Museum, as well as faculty with the Bard Prison Initiative. Kaishian earned her PhD from SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Patricia introduces us to the 'Abounding Queerness of Nature' (the subtitle to her book Forest Euphoria). Along with recounting her personal path to a life of science found as a child in the Hudson Valley's natural settings, she describes how fungal species commonly encompass more than two biological sexes. Intersex slugs, glass eels, various bird species, and many others are all examples of the queerness of all the life around us, and there is never just one way for living things in the natural world to reproduce or evolve or interact.

Ethan Tapper is a nationally-recognized forester, bestselling author, and content creator from Vermont. In 2017, he bought a 175-acre forest in Bolton, Vermont that he now calls “Bear Island.” On this episode of Nature Revisited, Tapper walks us through the fragile and resilient community that is a forest, and recounts- through countless bittersweet and beautiful acts- how he was able to transform the problem-ridden Bear Island from a symbol of “everything that was wrong with the world,” into “a symbol of what is possible, a symbol of hope." He explains how the actions we must take to protect ecosystems are often counterintuitive, uncomfortable, even heartbreaking, reminding us that what is simple is rarely true, and what is necessary is rarely easy.

Laura J. Martin is a prize-winning author, historian, and ecologist who studies how people shape the habitats of other species. Her work has been featured in the New York Times, Scientific American, Slate, and The Atlantic. On this episode of Nature Revisited, Laura discusses her book Wild by Design: The Rise of Ecological Restoration, which delves into the history, science, and philosophy of designing natural places and creating wild species. Over time, ecologists, interest groups, and government agencies have coalesced around a mode of environmental management that seeks to respect the world-making and decision-making of other species, but is it possible to design nature without destroying wildness? Laura asks us what it means to be wild and calls for ecological restoration that is socially just.

In this episode of Nature Revisited, Scott returns to discuss the looming climate crisis and how the solution lies not with identifying the problems we face nor in the way we communicate them, but in changing the very mental models culturally instilled in us - paradigms which fundamentally shape the way we view the natural world and our place within it.
