Creativity Ending Exploitative Capitalism

Positively Pedestrian

In this episode of Positively Pedestrian, we discuss various ways capitalism and consumerism work together as an extraction model for wealth and human toll therein. Beyond outlying the problem, Sean and Kris go through various ways of reimagining this paradigm and using it as an agent for positive change for the health and wellness of the American People. They go through some moral and social issues, talk a bit about massive wealth, social responsibility, and then into education. The discussion finishes off with a big idea of floating power plants for ocean liners and the thought experiment of human activity massively augmenting the lithosphere and atmosphere.
