Wendell Berry and Helena Norberg-Hodge on Caretaking
"In 2018, Helena Norberg-Hodge sat down with Wendell Berry for a far-reaching
discussion. The two are giants of the local economy movement. Berry is a poet
and activist, an author of over forty books--including The Unsettling of America
and Home Economics--and a lifelong advocate for ecological health, the beauty of
rural life, and small-scale farming. He is a recipient of the National
Humanities Medal. Norberg-Hodge founded Local Futures, which works to renew
ecological, social, and spiritual well-being by promoting a systemic shift
toward economic localization. She also produced the film The Economics of
Happiness and wrote the book Ancient Futures: Learning from Ladakh. She was
honored with the Right Livelihood Award for her groundbreaking work in
Ladakh."
