- ” Why, at this moment, are there references to common sense as shorthand for the market economy everywhere we look? Can we reclaim common sense to create the conditions for a livable future in a climate-changed world? In this podcast, we consider common sense through the lens of the commons—the physical, natural, and cultural resources we all share – the land, water, and air; public education and public transit; shared conversations and collective action. Listen in as we explore with our guests alternatives to our current course of rising carbon emissions.”
