Join us for an interesting and enlightening podcast delving into the connections between capitalism, environmental change and education. Our guest Stephen Coady, a postgraduate diploma student in geography pursuing a career in teaching, discusses the Anthropocene and Capitalocene. He highlights the implications of the two concepts for understanding climate and ecological crises. We explore the deep roots that capitalism has with fossil fuel extraction, while honing in on two specific samples - the Athabasca Tar Sands and Appalachian coal mines. Find out how these insights can be brought into the world of second level education and can possibly influence future generations to think about current world problems such as environmental justice or climate change.
