In this episode, Gary Watts speaks with Mishal Noor about how change becomes real when it's tangible, mental models, and how policies and reporting matter, but lasting sustainability happens when organisations change how they think.

In this episode, Gary Watts speaks with James Ehrlich about redesigning how we live through regenerative systems, data, and deep listening to the land.

James shares how soil health, mycelial networks and edge AI come together in VillageOS™, and why giving the land a “voice” through generative AI could change how we understand natural resource flows, climate potential and what a place can sustain.

James Ehrlich is Director of Compassionate Sustainability at the Stanford University School of Medicine at the Center for Compassion Altruism Research and Education (CCARE), is also appointed affiliate to the Stanford Woods Institute for Human and Planetary Health, a Sr. Fellow and NASA Ames Research Center, and Founder of ReGen Villages, a Stanford spin-off company applying AI and machine learning software for the design and operation of resilient and self-sustainable housing developments around the world.
