Jeremy Thomas Gilmer | This Rare Earth, Consumer Culture & Hidden Systems

Jeremy Thomas Gilmer joins The Radical Fabulatorium for a long-form conversation about extraction, consumer culture, environmental complexity, hidden systems, and his book This Rare Earth. We discuss the reality behind a $5 t-shirt, the ethics and complexity of resource extraction, and the disconnect many of us experience between the materials and systems that support modern life.Jeremy also talks about storytelling, philosophy, creativity, regional identity, observation, and our shared passion for artists and musicians from New Brunswick, Canada.Check out Jeremy’s latest book and other work here:https://jeremythomasgilmer.com/
