In this conversation with Corinna Bellizzi, she shares how she underscored the disproportionate impact of environmental contamination on marginalized regions by highlighting the stories and activism of ordinary people. Dr. Sarah also explains why the lives of everyday individuals must not be treated as less important than in-depth scientific researches, which both aim to build healthier and more sustainable communities.About Guest:Seattle-based author and historian Sarah Fox is drawn to the stories we tell about places, bodies, and the relationships between them. Fox is the author of Downwind: A People’s History of the Nuclear West (University of Nebraska Press, 2014).

True Impact Of Our Human Footprint With Shane Campbell-Staton, PhD
The human footprint may not be easily measurable, but it is crucial in shaping the planet for better and for worse – but most of the time it is the latter. Corinna Bellizzi sits down with biologist Shane Campbell-Staton, PhD, who hosts the aptly named show "Human Footprint." He talks all about his experiences traveling around the world to delve into different human activities, cultures, and lifestyles to understand how they impact our society and environment. Shane also shares insights on how supermarkets changed the way we eat, the value of humanity’s fundamental interconnectedness, the true costs of hydroelectric power, and the truth behind the bee colony collapse.About Guest:Shane is interested in how human history, culture, technology and politics influence life, biological stress and evolution of species around the world. He uses physiology, gene expression, genomics and experimentation to identify genes and traits that allow animals to rapidly adapt to new environmental pressures faced in a human-dominated world. Shane also has a deep passion for sharing science with the public. His own passion for science was kindled through television as a child. Growing up in a small town in South Carolina, he was not exposed to much nature or the outdoors. But watching nature documentaries and TV shows featuring passionate presenters, like Steve Irwin and Jeff Corwin, he developed a love for the natural world. Now Shane is sharing his own passions and the wonders of science with a diverse audience through his research as well as visual and audio media.Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shane-campbell-staton-034a1380/Guest Website: https://www.campbellstaton.com/Guest Social: https://www.pbs.org/show/human-footprint/https://www.instagram.com/shane.campbellstaton/https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-biology-of-superheroes-podcast/id1314139416https://www.tiktok.com/@pbshttps://www.youtube.com/@PBS/featuredAdditional Resources Mentioned:The Impact of Climate Storytelling with Trip Jennings and Maiya May of WEATHERED, a PBS DocuseriesThe Impact of Dams on the Health of Our Ecosystems with Steve Hawley, Author of CrackedThe Consequences of Farmed Salmon with Simen Saetre, Author of The New FishShow Notes: Raw audio00:02:37 - Shane Campbell-Staton And Human Footprint00:08:24 - What To Expect From Season 200:11:19 - How Supermarkets Changed Our Daily Lives00:13:41 - Understanding The Honey Trap And Colony Collapse00:17:49 - Insights About Hydroelectric Power00:24:50 - Appreciating Fundamental Interconnectedness00:26:52- Environmental Response To Human Footprint00:34:45 - Telling Stories About Social Justice00:46:12 - Evolving From Domination To Reciprocity00:53:39 - How To Remian Hopeful And Keep The Faith00:56:17 - Making Small Changes For The Greater Good00:59:51 - Episode Wrap-up And Closing WordsJOIN OUR CIRCLE.
