Green Root Podcast #106: IS THE PUBLIC LANDS MOVEMENT SELLING OUT “PRIVATE” LANDS?

On episode 106 of the Green Root Podcast (the official podcast of Eco-Integrity Alliance), host Josh Schlossberg wades into an old but ongoing debate within the environmental movement about whether it’s ethical for ecosystem advocates to focus exclusively on public lands protection at the expense of “private” land extraction.

Josh talks about:

-The arbitrary yet currently legal definitions of public vs. private lands in the U.S.

-The gaps and overlaps between a “deep ecology” philosophy and on-the-ground organizing.

-Whether it’s possible for advocates to carry out practical, step-by-step, mission-based actions without compromising a wholistic vision of ecological integrity.
