301 - Wade Davis - Dreams from Endangered Cultures

April 10, 2014

A National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, Wade Davis has been described as “a rare combination of scientist, scholar, poet and passionate defender of all of life’s diversity.â€Â Wade Davis discusses the importance of embracing all cultures, especially those we are unfamiliar with to gain a greater perspective on our world and the beauty in life in general.


David discusses some of the key topics from Wade’s TedTalk and how we can start to gain a better understanding and close the divide between all of us. Be curious, and tread the road less travelled by ‘tourists’, and embrace the unique spirit and energy that is in all cultures.
