279) Luisa Maffi [PART 1]: Weaving together biological diversity and cultural and language diversity

*We need your support to continue the show! If you've listened to more than a few episodes and have learned from our work, please join our Patreon today: www.greendreamer.com/support   Dr. Luisa Maffi is a pioneer of the concept of biocultural diversity—which is the intertwined diversity of life in nature and culture. In 1996, she co-founded Terralingua, which is an international nonprofit devoted to sustaining biocultural diversity. And she currently heads the organization and edits its flagship publication, Langscape Magazine. In this podcast episode, Dr. Maffi sheds light on the current trends of language and cultural diversity loss; what might be at stake if we continued to try to only address biodiversity loss without at the same time preserving cultural and language diversity; and more.   Featured music: Stay by Berne Episode notes: www.greendreamer.com/luisa Newsletter: www.greendreamer.com  Support the show: www.greendreamer.com/support  Instagram: www.instagram.com/greendreamerpodcast
