In today’s episode Matt and Toby discuss fatherhood, Father Ted and have a rich and insightful discussion with Dr Michelle Moloney.
Dr Michelle Maloney is is the Co-Founder & National Convenor of the Australian Earth Laws Alliance (AELA). AELA promotes the understanding and practical implementation of Earth centred governance - with a focus on creating systems change within western law, economics, ethics, education and culture. Michelle is Co-Founder and Director of the New Economy Network Australia and Co-Founder and Director of Future Dreaming Australia, a not-for-profit organisation created in partnership with Indigenous Elders, which works to build cross-cultural ecological knowledge and create an Earth centred society.
Michelle is a tireless and unwavering change agent that has dedicated her adult life to learning about and now implementing shifts from our current human extractivist centred way of being towards a regenerative and ecological approach. The work Michelle has done for over 30 years in academia, law, governance, community, social change and ethics is incredible - and we believe she is only getting started.
In today’s conversation we discuss Michelle’s early life and inspiration, her love of the living world, the work of Thomas Berry, systems change, Earth Law, the history of western society, being an apocaloptimist, redefining the good life and building a tapestry of change.
