He joins me to discuss how we can actually get there, drawing on real-life, tangible examples and a bunch of concepts that tend to get people excited. In this chat, we cover:&nbsp;fractal flourishing, phase transition, mutually beneficial symbiosis and the Basque self-governing cooperative&nbsp;<strong>Mondragón.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Jeremy is the founder of the Deep Transformation Network, an online discussion community, and convenes the Ecocivilization Coalition. He has been described by George Monbiot as “one of the greatest thinkers of our age”. Lent’s latest book,&nbsp;<em>Ecocivilization: Making a World that Works for All</em>, follows two previous award-winning books,&nbsp;<em>The Patterning Instinct</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>The Web of Meaning</em>.</p><p><br></p><p>SHOW NOTES</p><ul><li>You can learn more about Jeremy Lent’s work via <a href=\"https://www.jeremylent.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">his website</a>.</li><li>Get your copy of his book Ecocivilization: Making a World that Works for All <a href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Ecocivilization-Making-World-that-Works-ebook/dp/B0FLCWK4QZ\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.&nbsp;</li></ul><p><br></p><p>---</p><p><br></p><p>Watch on <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@SarahWilson_Wild\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube</a> or <a href=\"https://sarahwilson.substack.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Substack</a></p><p>If you need to know a bit more about me… head to my \"<a href=\"http://www.sarahwilson.com/about\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">about</a>\" page</p><p>For more such conversations, subscribe to my<a href=\"https://sarahwilson.substack.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Substack newsletter</a>, it’s where I interact the most!</p><p>Let’s connect on<a href=\"http://www.instagram.com/_sarahwilson_\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Instagram</a></p>","author_name":"Sarah Wilson"}
