Why Words Matter in Sustainability/Legacy

When nature is under stress, words are no longer just tools of communication; they become catalysts. Stories can stir empathy, and the right words can shape the world we want to protect. What happens when we stop telling the stories that put us to sleep and start telling those that wake us up? Hosted by Sangeeta Waldron, author of What Will Your Legacy Be? – Conversations With Global Change Makers About The Climate Crisis, this episode features guests Emily Buchanan (Send Flowers) and Olivia Sprinkel (To Hear The Trees Speak). Together they dive into climate grief, the art of listening to nature, and how words can shift heart, spark action, and keep hope alive. This is a public episode.
