Think Globally Radio is a debate/discussion style radio program intended to help spread awareness and deeper understanding on issues of sustainable development. We at SDU-newsletter have on several occassions collaborated with Think Globally and recommended interesting guests for the program. Each episode focuses on one important environmental issue, and experts on the topic at hand are invited to the studio to provide insight and expertise. One of the most recent episodes features Brian Walker from CSIRO Sustainable Ecosystems in Australia, and the former Program Director of the Resilience Alliance. He explains why thinking in terms of the resilience of ecosystems and social structures is vital in a world that is becoming increasingly vulnerable to passing catastrophic thresholds.
Among the many other interesting guests and topics found in Think Globally’s extensive online-archive are: Food security and poverty reduction in the developing world (with Kostas Stamoulis and Christina Engfeldt of FAO); Climate change negotiations from Kyoto to Copenhagen (Bo Kjellen); Surviving the Anthropocene (Will Steffen, Australian National University); Environmental politics and climate change (Anders Wijkman, Member of the European Parliament); and Geopolitical implications of climate change (Peter Haldén, Swedish Defense Research Agency).
