As Trump's tariff policies trigger economic uncertainty, consumer confidence is dropping.

With those new tariffs rattling global markets, we're seeing something remarkable: Americans consuming less while becoming more engaged as citizens. This shift—from shopping mall to town hall, from consumer mindset to civic responsibility—creates an opening for environmental progress.

Throughout most of human history, people identified primarily as members of communities—families, tribes, villages, and nations. Post-1950, we became ultra-consumers.

As climate upheaval approaches, our latest episode argues that our survival depends on reclaiming our cooperative nature. Discover how the shift from passive consumer to active citizen not only prepares communities for increasingly frequent climate disasters but also repairs the social fabric that excessive consumption has damaged.

Our provocative new episode challenges the consumer mindset that's dominated the last 70 years.
