In his new book Saving Animals, Saving Ourselves, Professor Jeff Sebo talks about why we should — and how we can — consider animals when we tackle issues like the climate crisis and future pandemics. During our conversation, I asked him about the book, the challenges of science communication, and the state of Generation Z (or more specifically — what to do when my some hypothetical 17 year old says we’re all doomed anyway so why bother).
Listen to the podcast above or watch the video (published in a separate post because Substack hasn’t figured this out yet).
