The BPA envisions a society that thinks more holistically. A society that understands that complex issues are connected so responses to one may have side effects elsewhere. A society that prefers questions to answers. https://biggerpicturealliance.org

How do we begin to navigate the crisis of meaning that seems to accompany modernity, exacerbated by feeling out of control in the broader world we live in?
Today, Nate is joined by professor of psychology and cognitive scientist John Vervaeke to discuss the state of ‘the meaning crisis’, including the social and cultural contexts that have fostered such pervasive loss of connection and purpose.

Today, Nate is joined by investment strategist Jeremy Grantham to discuss the critical but underreported issues surrounding toxicity and public health – including endocrine disruptors, human fertility, longevity, and societal structures.

A key question of our times is "How do we talk to children about the current predicament?" This truly amazing conversation, skillfully guided by @natehagens.bsky.social, provides one possible pathway.
In this conversation, Nate speaks with documentarian Damon Gameau and three young activists in The Future Council about transforming a system that is actively harming our planet and what they think should be done to save humanity from itself.
