EPISODE 49 - SARAH WILSON ON MAKING AN IMPACT WITH YOUR ONE WILD AND PRECIOUS LIFE
Sarah Wilson is an award-winning author, minimalist, philanthropist and climate activist. After a career in the limelight of media and TV and as the founder of ‘I Quit Sugar’, Sarah has increasingly strengthened her voice to bring colour, understanding and lived experiences to many of the complex social, environmental and personal challenges that we face as a species.
Sarah’s most recent book, ‘This One Wild and Precious Life’ is a personal journey through understanding the climate crisis and what has led humanity to be in our current predicament. Notably, Sarah explores the perils of western capitalism and neo liberalism and how these systems have led to the crumbling of environmental, social and cultural structures and what needs to be done to piece a better version of the puzzle back together.
Our podcast host Tim and Sarah have a long history as friends and allies in the pursuit of rational progress on environmental issues in Australia, particularly around living with less and introducing systems to reduce and better manage waste. Naturally, the conversation flows into the current situation with Australia’s political leadership and inaction on bold climate policy.
