Neither planet nor people can survive business-as-usual

Will Falk is a biophilic essayist, poet, and lawyer. He believes the intensifying destruction of the natural world is the most pressing issue confronting us today and he aims his writing at stopping this destruction. His work has been published by Earth Island Journal, the Dark Mountain Project, CounterPunch, Whole Terrain, and the San Diego Free Press, among others. He is also the author of the book, “How Dams Fall.” His newest project is an ongoing multimedia project called “The Ohio River Speaks.”

Will and I spoke on June 14th. We talked about the problem of civilization, about depression as a gateway to understanding that, and about the profound cultural changes required for collective, individual and ecological health.
