The Community Resilience Reader: Radio Ecoshock interview

October 20, 2017

“Resilience” is a key word for a spectrum starting with collapseniks all the way to big city Mayors and regional planners. But what is it? Has anybody thought this through?

Enter The Community Resilience Reader from the Post Carbon Institute. It’s billed as “Essential Resources for an Era of Upheaval”. We’ve certainly got the upheaval.

I’ve reached the book’s editor and co-author Daniel Lerch. Daniel was featured on Radio Ecoshock in 2009, from a conference called “Gaining Ground/Resilient Cities”. He’s been on this beat ever since.

Listen to the full October 18 2017 Episode of Radio Ecoshock.
