In this episode, the tenth in the series, Mark Pellegrino discusses whether environmentalism is good for humans and proposes three ways to a human-first approach to the environment.

00:00 What is Environmentalism?
00:24 How do humans interact with the natural world?
01:10 What's the nature of our special relationship with the world?
02:15 What would a human-first approach to the environment look like?
02:38 Are humans part of nature?
03:03 Why do we romanticize the simpler days of the hunter-gatherer?
03:38 What would a humanistic environmental policy look like?
03:48 What's in it for the political class?
04:21 What kind of 'ism' is best for humans?

'It’s time to take the environmental out of environmentalism and replace it with human… the real humanism of a liberal society that does not treat human action as if it is in natural conflict with everything else, cause it isn't.'
