Episode #35 of The Species
Barrier... South African Professor of Philosophy David Benatar, writer
of Better To Have Never Been, The Harm of Coming Into Existence joins us
to discuss his work. Mistro, musical artist from Norway has a new album
out called The Tragedy of Birth and author Jan Smitowicz from America
is the writer of revenge novel Orange Rain.
Also in the news discussion, we attended the Premiere of Unity (Long
awaited followup to Earthlings) and give our thoughts, World Overshoot
Day passes, water and food predicted to run out, The Pope's encyclical
covers environmentalism and animal ethics, Beyonce's "veganism", techno
fixes can't save the oceans, Cecil The Lion and it's been made official
that humans are driving The Sixth Great Extinction event in geological
history.
Welcome To The Species Barrier... where two vegan, environmentalists
question how we interact with the planet and the other animals who call
it home. Prepare to have your preconceptions challenged and explore that
barrier in place which separates the human animal from other species.
