Miyazaki recognition \n\n

This is Miles\u2019 favorite. Chris doesn\u2019t generally love Miyazaki but really really loves\xa0Totoro.

\n\n Environmentalism in Media \n\n

Processing human-caused catastrophe. We previously explored this in our Godzilla episode with Miles. Miyazaki was\xa0inspired by Minamata disease.

\n\n Aircraft \n\n

irl Nausicaa glider!

\n\n Rewilding \n\n

The ways in which humanity is worse than poison. Thriving of wildlife in our absence. Predators.

\n\n What is nature \n\n

Colloquial definitions versus recognition that we are part of nature and not really separate from it.

\n\n Technology Anxiety \n\n

Nuclear power safety and the\xa0negative effects of fossil fuels. Recognizing the relative safeness and harm. Being responsible with our technology.

\n\n Preservation \n\n

Of knowledge and technology over epochal time. Infrastructure and production. The scientific method as essential technology.
