#067 Extra - Recarbonising the Economy, Regenerative Education & Fire in the Belly of Reconciliation
With Dr Terry McCosker
In this special extra to episode 67, we talk about some of the key changes Terry’s observed over the decades, and how to keep them coming. We also elaborate on the vision he articulated in the main episode, including some major shifts in supply chains and some of the positive politics currently unfolding around carbon and biodiversity credits. And we delve more deeply into his stock in trade – what regenerative education looks like!

“I firmly believe that the significance of the droughts we’ve had in Australia, I think since the 1980’s at least, have been more man-made than they have been by climate change. Without a doubt. And it’s the fact that we’ve broken the small water cycle, and that’s been man-made. And if we’ve made it, then we can unmake it.”
Terry tells the story of the teacher who triggered his growth from high school drop-out to where he’s at today. And another moving story anchors our closing conversation on the vital issues of drought and flood, fire and First Nations people, and trust, in the regeneration of country.
