Both the podcasts of the lecture and of the conversation are outputs of Eco Thoughts, a series of podcasts produced by the Center for Applied Ecological Thinking (CApE) at the University of Copenhagen, Denmark.

From Eco Thoughts podcast page: “We expand the conversation on the biodiversity and climate crisis with aesthetic, ethical, historical and cultural perspectives. We do that by inviting thinkers, practitioners, stakeholders and researchers across different fields within the humanities to join us through talks, conversations, lectures and workshops that we share with you right here in the podcast.”
