Music and Ecology with Amelie Ecology and Morag Gamble

Hello, I'm Morag. Welcome to this episode of Sense-making in a Changing World podcast - a project of the Permaculture Education Institute . This is a special episode as part of the International Permaculture Festival of IdeasI invite you to join me each week in conversation with leading permaculture-related educators, thinkers, activists, authors, designers and practitioners to explore the kind of thinking AND ACTION we need to navigate a positive and regenerative way forward, to myceliate possibilities, and share ideas of what a thriving one-planet way of life could look like. My guests offer voices of clarity and common sense.This week I am joined by Dr Amelie Vanderstock (AKA Amelie Ecology) and get to share two of her amazzz-ing new songs from her debut album, Let's Bee Scientists.Amelie is a pollinator ecologist, musician and permaculture educator from the Blue Mountains, Australia on Dharug and Gundungurra country.She creates songs inspired by the wonders of native bees and the natural world and invites science lovers young and old to be curious and sow seeds of change. Amelie has performed in schools and festivals across Australia, Europe and Japan including Woodford Folk Festival and Green Gathering (UK). As an ecologist, Amelie researches the role of community gardens and urban greenspaces for promoting pollinating insect biodiversity. She also designs educational programs that connect youth with local ecology, inviting them to be co-creators of ecological research. Amelie is just releasing her debut studio album and educational resource kit ‘Let’s BEE Scientists’,  - it went live on World Environment Day, 2024.Amelie's CROWDFUND LINKAmelie Ecology WebsiteAmelie Ecology on SpotifyAmelie Ecology Instagram---------------------I'd love to hear from you.

Really live, as nature ourselves, tending the conditions where life can thrive. We ask How do we become the kind of humans this moment is asking us to be?This podcast is one of my acts of myceliation. Each conversation is a thread in a vast network of people speaking up for life with love and care. This podcast beams out from my hand-built solar-powered studio in the midst of a permaculture food forest in a permaculture ecovillage on Jinibara and Gubbi Gubbi country.If this episode lights something in you, pass it to one person who needs it. That is how myceliation works.
