In this episode of the Paperless Podcast, we dive into the subject of ecological grief with philosopher Hugo Rompani, from the University of Bristol. Join us as we unpack his thought-provoking paper titled, "On the Appropriateness of Ecological Grief," which sheds light on the emotional responses to environmental challenges often overlooked in philosophical discourse.
Hugo Rompani seeks to fill this gap by offering a philosophical analysis of ecological grief, drawing from Michael Cholbi's framework of grief as practical identity investment. Through a careful examination of different types of ecological grief and their appropriateness, Hugo aims to provide legitimacy to those grappling with grief due to environmental loss.
This episode is well worth listening to and once again highlights the exceptional thoughts, ideas and knowledge that often goes unnoticed outside of academic circles.
