Charles Eisenstein Extended Interview

“Going around New Zealand making a film … like that’s not gonna get you anywhere, that’s irrational, impractical, unrealistic…” Lots of people have asked about our interview with Charles Eisenstein for Living the Change – only a few minutes of the awesome 1.5-hour interview made it into the film so we thought we’d share it all with you. Have a listen to get the full picture of that quote 🙂

Below is a list of questions we asked Charles and the timecode they are answered in the video:

• 1:06 – What are the ‘old story’ and ‘new story’ that you describe in your writing?

• 28:20 – Do you think advancements in technology can solve the problems we’re facing?
• 33:50 – Do you see the current money system as a symptom of separation?
