Episode 2 - The Give Back Generation

Burgs Podcast

In this podcast, Burgs introduces and discusses the notion of what he calls the Give Back Generation. This is an attitude and way of being that seeks to encourage us to think of our lives in terms of being net contributors to life and to our planet so that by the end of our lives we have put back more than we have taken out at all levels. The group discussion looks at the various aspects of this way of being.
