About this listen

It’s Sustainability Time explores sustainability as the engine for long-term human progress and the guiding influence for personal growth. Sustainability is both practical and profound — part everyday effort, part vision for what humanity can become. Together, we explore how developing a complete understanding of the true value of environmental, human, and societal resources, among others, creates an awareness that will lead us to a more stable and meaningful world. Uncovering the many dimensions of value, is the start of the path towards a truly sustainable world. A deeper, more philosophical understanding is beginning to emerge.


It’s Sustainability Time will include conversations with special guests, sharing real stories of resilience, purpose, and transformation.


Your host, Todd Francis Banks, is a certified peer mental health support counselor with a background in finance, visual arts, and environmental sciences.

  • Value is the Inspiration for Change
    Apr 12 2026

    Value is both the starting point of sustainability—and its end result.

    In this episode, we explore why real progress isn’t driven by better information or improved practices alone, but by a shift in how we think and what we recognize as valuable.

    Sustainability is often framed as environmental protection, but its true potential may be much broader: the development of resilient communities, strong institutions, and a way of living that supports both people and the natural world.

    If we begin to see value differently, what kind of society could emerge?

  • The Sustainable Mind
    Mar 24 2026

    Sustainability has a transcendent quality.
    Can we make it part of our everyday reality?

    In this episode, Todd Francis explores the idea that sustainable thinking is less like a band-aid for problems and more like a vitamin — something that strengthens individuals, communities, and future generations over time.

    The possibilities for wiser decisions, personal growth, and long-term progress are boundless.

    Join the conversation and discover the deeper value of sustainable thinking.

  • Our Incarceration Pandemic: Part 1
    Dec 1 2025

    Americans make up 25% of the global prison population. We live in a virtual pandemic of U.S. citizens who live their lives in 6ft. x 8ft. cells. Is this a crime against humanity or a strong commitment to keep law abiding citizens safe?

    On this episode we will talk about the real-time components, ambivalence and de facto-ambivalence, that make crime management in America an abysmal failure. Then we will talk to a former gang member about his experiences, which have consumed more than half of his adult life.
