Communicating Animal Sentience with Carl Safina

Sentient Planet is a podcast I started hosting on Earth Day 2021. It showcases the more-than-human animals with whom we share the Earth and the humans dedicated to their urgent defence and preservation.

It’s been a wonderful creative project to put my energy into during this time of pandemic. The subject matter can be emotionally tough to prepare for, but the interviews give me the opportunity to explore species and sentience and what they all mean for our collective future, and to share the wisdom of animal advocates and Earth lovers with listeners.

I started publishing Season 2 a few weeks ago. A popular guest is the renowned ecologist and bestselling author, Carl Safina. Carl has written extensively about animal wisdom, rituals and behaviours, most notably in his recent book, “Becoming Wild: How Animal Cultures Raise Families, Create Beauty, and Achieve Peace.”

It’s been suggested that the members of this sangha might really enjoy this and related Sentient Planet episodes. That would be awesome! You can find Carl’s interview here.
