Episode 6: Heather Alberro, Green Utopianism

In this episode, we speak with Heather Alberro, a Lecturer in Sustainability at the University of Manchester.


We chat with Heather about Green Utopianism, a type of utopianism that straddles both the literary and the social-critical, and invites us to ask not only how we can improve the world for humanity, but for non-humans as well. Heather discusses social movements and literary texts alike in this lively interview, as well as her rich publication track record.
