Hope: Conversation with Cam Brewer

Wild and Precious Conversations

Welcome to another episode of Wild and Precious Conversations. This week, a conversation with Cam Brewer, lawyer, activist, author.

I told Cam that we would be speaking about the commons.

Ha.

I planned to have this conversation and then put it out as a helpful adjunct to another couple conversations I am waiting to share with you about both our collective responsibility as a society and our how we can use that collective responsibility as an empowering force for good in the world.

Well, as we conversed, I realized wholeheartedly that this conversation was filling me with hope.

Hope for us as humans. Hope for us — that we really can wrap our brains around the idea that we are enough, we have enough, and we can share.

As much as we had to learn that as little children, as much as we teach our own children.

We can step into our responsibility and make really mature, good, healthy choices about how to use our natural commons, our economic commons, our digital commons and our communities.

Have a listen!
