Episode 2
In this episode I’m speaking with Dr. Ellis Jones, a sociologist and professor at College of the Holy Cross who focuses on social responsibility, global citizenship and everyday activism, all with an emphasis on how to turn environmental idealism into practical action. He has created The Better World shopping guides, website and apps that focus on how to approach consumerism in a more environmentally conscious manner.
During our conversation, we explore how to hold power accountable, the path of reclaiming our collective voice in society and the move toward global citizenship--all with an eye on creating a more sustainable and environmentally just planet.
