Pascal Egli has been one of the fastest mountain and sky runners in the world for the past 5 years. He is not only an elite mountain athlete, but a thoughtful human being who consistently puts out inspiration to connect with nature in the world.
His background as a professional scientist allows him a unique insight into our connection with nature.
In this episode Pascal and I discuss our relationship with nature. How this has evolved or devolved over time and why the view point that we are separate from nature is responsible for many of the issues involving climate change.
Pascal discusses his deep connection with nature, how his childhood played a role in his appreciation for our planet, and how mountain running has allowed him to experience more parts of the world and beauty.
We discuss so much from over consumption, to environmental elitism, to privilege in the outdoor industry.
