Episode 5 – Spirit

We have the potential to heal not just from the COVID-19 virus but also from the many interconnected problems that plague us. Though the months since the pandemic began have been a time of disconnect for many, they have shown that we can come together to solve a common problem and mobilize massive resources at a moment’s notice. We can make vast public investments in our shared well-being, and even change the way we live. But it takes the will to do it. We are the heart of the crisis, and the solution is in us. 

In Season 1 of The David Suzuki Podcast, “COVID-19 and the Basic Elements of Life,” David and guests explore how the pandemic can help us refocus on what’s most important, and what a green and just recovery from COVID-19 could look like. They return to the fundamentals to help us seize this unique opportunity to rediscover our place on this beautiful living planet. 

The season’s fifth and final episode explores the theme “Spirit” and features conversations with iconic activist and musician Neil Young and David Suzuki Foundation co-founder Tara Cullis. 

You can help make sure we seize this unprecedented opportunity to build back a better world by urging Ottawa to advance a green and just recovery from COVID-19. Visit davidsuzuki.org/green-and-just-recovery/
