Why Jane Goodall still insists on hope (via The Current)
Listen now
Description
Jane Goodall believes we’re living through very dark times indeed, but the renowned primatologist continues to see hope as a basic survival strategy.  In a special bonus episode from The Current with Matt Galloway, she explains why. Goodall offers her perspective as someone born during the Great Depression, who lived through World War II, and who sees the events happening around us today with the clarity of a wise elder.  She officially turned 90 since this interview, recorded last October, and we want to make sure our listeners have a chance to consider her key message — especially if you’re still young. (Remember, her world-changing work began in her 20s. Her passion for nature started even younger.)
