In his podcast, The Anthropocene Reviewed, author John Green uses humor to explore deceptively simple questions. In the episode, The Sycamore Tree, he asks:Why? and Whats even the point? In Humanitys Temporal Range, he explores the anxiety of living in a changing world. He finds reassurance in trees, and squirrels, and art. On a more practical level, Patrick McCormick examines green labels and calls for the work of citizens to effect change in government and commerce. In particular, the events of the past couple of years may have caused you to ask questions yourself.
