Environment

Hello there! My name's Aaron Burr. The natural world needs more love and compassion, and this natural world of course includes us humans as well. While I back up everything I say with data and science, I'm no scientist. I hope you enjoy my back-to-the-basics, positive, and uplifting approach to the environmental movement and making the world a better place.

58 | The Complexities of Action and why Talk is Cheap

7/28/2021
IMPORTANT: red tide comes from algae overgrowth, not whatever I said. Also, this is not episode 59...despite me insisting it was, haha! In episode FIFTY EIGHT I talk about the problems we face with actors (companies, governments, people, etc.) saying they will do something one way and then act differently. Why is it important for us to hold those we support accountable? I also discuss societal issues brought up by some university courses I'm currently taking. Detailed show notes at...

54 | Be Kind

5/7/2020
I do my very best to not claim one solution to our world's problems. The world is never as simple. We know this especially in regards to the environment, many things affect it. But I do think kindness has the potential to make a lot of issues even just a little better. Detailed show notes at Weallcanchange.com/podcast Support my work at Weallcanchange.com/donate

52 | Finding Alternatives and Independent Happiness

4/16/2020
A thought came to me about why I feel rather calm about money, the economy, pandemics, etc. I have seen the alternatives that thrive without those things, and they look pretty darn good. I talk about this and about not basing our happiness off things that aren't in our control. Detailed show notes at Weallcanchange.com/podcast Support my work at Weallcanchange.com/donate

49 | Neither Corporations nor Individuals alone

3/26/2020
Neither corporations nor Individuals are the sole solution to healing the earth. There seems to be a back and fourth on individual action vs political. Can one person make a difference? Like most things in this world, the answers lie somewhere in the middle. We can have both and we need both, so let's have fucking both!

48 | Finding the Good

3/19/2020
Wow, what a month. I have battled a ton with whether or not I should talk about the Coronavirus. I don't want to add to the noise or chaos. So I figured I could offer a happy medium of talking more vaguely on issues like these and how to find the good. Breath y'all, eat healthy, exercise, and don't stress too much. Enjoy!

46 | Some Thoughts about Quality Products

3/5/2020
Like everything else which is good in the world, businesses have recognized the market of sustainable products. I believe this is mostly a good thing. It has also led to the continued overconsumption of things in our life. We are still being told the same "this thing will make you happy", but now by buying it you are helping the planet. No product comes without a footprint on the planet. In this episode I dig into these ideas. Enjoy! Detailed show notes at...

43 | Climate Change isn't a good Reason to Change

2/14/2020
Climate change is not a good reason to change. It is not what we should be pushing as the reason for people to make changes. We have come so far in the environmental movement, but are enough people taking action in their personal lives? I think this has something to do with that.
