Posted by Jordan Poppenk
This week, we probe the nuances of environmental thinking in Canadian politics by speaking to two experts about how faith and money are affecting the environmental vote:
- Simon Watson speaks with Dr. Stephen Bede Scharper, Professor of religion and ecology at the University of Toronto, about “political theology” and the interaction between faith and the environment in the current Canadian and American federal elections.
- Ecological Economics professor Dr. Peter Victor of York University speaks with host Jordan Poppenk about the environmental politics of growth and his book, Managing Without Growth: Slower By Design, Not Disaster.
- Jordan and Pundit Kevin Farmer speak about the strategic environmental vote and discuss the website, voteforenvironment.com.
