Dialogue 7 of "Reconciling Ways of Knowing," titled "Connecting Spiritually with the Land and Each Other," featured Elder Dr. Dave Courchene, Grandmother Katherine Whitecloud, and Dr. Blair Stonechild, moderated by Shaunna Morgan Siegers, MSc. They discussed the essential spiritual connection between people and the land, a foundational Indigenous understanding often absent from dominant worldviews influencing Canadian environmental policy.

Convenors Miles Richardson, OC, Dr. David Suzuki, and Dr. Nancy Turner later shared insights, followed by audience Q&A. The dialogue originally aired on Tuesday, January 26.

Climate change pioneers John Elkington, Bjorn Stigson, Doug Miller, and David Suzuki anticipate worsening conditions before improvement. They fear significant progress remains elusive.

True unity on climate action, they suggest, will only emerge once daily life is disrupted, and individuals fully grasp the direct link between their actions and environmental consequences.

An optimistic message suggests human-caused climate change will be largely solved within 10-15 years, driven by exponential changes we often underestimate. History shows we consistently misjudge the speed of transformational shifts, like the move from horses to automobiles or America's journey to oil independence.

We are seeing this underestimation again in the transition from a fossil fuel to a low-carbon economy. This perspective comes from David Leuschen, Co-Founder of Riverstone Holdings, a private equity firm focused on energy, and former Goldman Sachs executive.

Dr. David Zaber, an environmental consultant specializing in sustainable natural resources and agricultural management, holds a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan. His talk explores how human behavioral ecology reveals resource use conflicts. He emphasizes that evolved human perception often causes people to overlook relevant environmental problems, hindering consensus and solutions.

Zaber argues that bridging this "Perception Gap" is crucial for effective environmental activism and protection. With an M.S. from the University of Illinois and extensive experience at organizations like Defenders of Wildlife, he currently works to protect Great Lakes forests and wildlife.
