Darwin and others theorized that evolution was about the survival of the fittest. But when Peter Kropotkin followed up on Darwin\\u2019s research, he discovered the competition was only part of the story of evolution in nature.
\\nAnd Kropotkin argued that cooperation and collaboration among organisms also helps them evolve.
\\nSo, why is Darwin\\u2019s narrative the dominant one? And how can an understanding of mutualism help us protect the ecosystems we depend on and find solutions to climate change?
\\nKristin Ohlson is an award-winning freelance journalist and author of The Soil Will Save Us: How Scientists, Farmers, and Foodies are Healing the Soil to Save the Planet. Her new release is called Sweet in Tooth and Claw: Stories of Generosity and Cooperation in the Natural World.
\\nOn this episode of Reversing Climate Change, Kristin joins Ross to explain why the study of mutualism in the evolution of nature has lagged, and challenge us to recognize and protect the cooperative relationships among organisms in our ecosystems.
\\nKristin shares some of her favorite stories from the book, describing how ranchers, scientists, and government leaders worked together to heal a degraded landscape in Eastern Nevada.
\\nListen in for Kristin\\u2019s insight on the growth of regenerative agriculture and learn how mutualism gives organisms superpowers as they work together to survive and thrive in extreme environments.
