Is Sustainability Really For Everyone? | Opinion

Can we really say sustainability is for everyone? The environmentalist in me says yes, but how do the people outside my personal circle think? And how would this look like in our food system? This is my perspective piece on sustainability.

This is an episode from The Right Feeling Podcast, exploring the relationship between sustainability and empathy. In it, I explore the complexities of sustainability and hear what strangers from Mauerpark, Berlin, as well as the Extinction Rebellion and its bystanders have to say.
