Our future depends on how we organize society. The question is: are we getting it right?
David Auge argues that we’ve been looking at it all wrong. In his book “Man’s Search for Sustainability”, he explores how honeybees and desert locusts - two extreme insect societies - hold surprising lessons for how we build our own communities.
In this episode, David reveals:
why stress is essential for growth,
how human society mirrors both, the order of bees and the chaos of locust swarms, and
why history - not just innovation - is the key to designing a truly sustainable future.
We also unpack the biggest misconception about sustainability and the one question everyone should ask to define their own why.
This conversation will change how you think about society.
