Show Notes

Dr. Ian Werkheiser is an Associate Professor of Philosophy and the director of the Center for Collaboration and Ethics at the University of Rio Grande Valley. He also the host of my favorite philosophy podcast: Thought About Food. Dr. Werkheiser, like many of the guests on Just Sustainability, seems to involved in more projects that should be physically possible. In his case, those projects tend to revolve around food justice and how communities resist oppression and marginalization.

On our second episode, Dr. Werkheiser and I spoke about how he believes we should reformulate the concept of sustainability (and how such a new understanding and approach to sustainability better serves communities) and how we might better integrate consideration of the interests of non-humans in our discourse and decision-making about environmental stewardship.
