Description
Osprey Orielle Lake is founder and executive director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network(WECAN), and works internationally with grassroots, BIPOC and Indigenous leaders, policymakers, and diverse coalitions to build climate justice, resilient communities, and a just transition to a decentralized, democratized clean-energy future. She sits on the executive committee for the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature and on the steering committee for the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Her most recent book is The Story is In Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis. On this episode we discuss: * Osprey's longtime connection with the land, which was fostered and developed during her early years spent among the redwood trees and beside the Pacific Ocean in Northern California * Osprey's understanding of the Sacred Feminine, including how it intertwines with animacy and how She can help us deepen our relationship with the Earth * The concept of sacred activism and Osprey's work with many indigenous peoples through WECAN, including the Rights of Nature movement * The importance of worldviews, and why it's vital that we adopt one that places us within the context of an intricately connected web of life
