Do you need to do everything perfectly to care for nature? Can you drive and yet want to reduce carbon emissions? Can you like those who fly using private jets like Taylor Swift and still be an environmentalist?In the first topic-based episode of the Generation Nature podcast, recorded live at Global Birdfair 2025, Galatea Hoyle leads a discussion on imperfect activism. The idea? Not that we should all strive to be perfect, but that every one of us can make a positive environmental impact by living our daily lives imperfectly.Host Galatea is joined in the episode by Kae Wrenn, Freddie Emms and Alana Wheat who share their authentic views on what they perceive an activist to be, the pressures of perfectionism in activism, and how they themselves are imperfect activists.If you want to learn more about imperfect activism, check out Force of Nature's fantastic podcast series Confessions of a Climate Activist: https://www.forceofnature.xyz/podcast-season-3Generation Nature Website: https://www.generationnature.org.uk/
