The Conjunction of Everything | People, Planet & Health | EP-6
People, planet, and health - can we choose just one? Our vodcast series of the same name brings to light the intersection and conjunction of all three. These entities rely on us to keep life on earth in delicate balance. We all play a part, and we need to learn how to live better together. Season One of “People, Planet, and Health” discussed some of the major issues effecting life on earth today: Plastics, Food, Water, and Air. In Episode 6, we revisit some of the takeaway points from the first five, the issues and victories in the stewardship and health of all land and all people, and we ask our own crew members what they’ve learned. One key fact: if science and technology doesn’t serve people or the place they live, then it’s not really working! Watch Episode 6 on YouTube: https://youtu.be/MGumUb_L4_4 (https://youtu.be/MGumUb_L4_4) In Season 2, we’re taking it to the next level. If you think about and care for people, planet, and health, we need to gather in community, talk about it, and take action. Engage in conversation, and build on the good, “stay tuned!” We are open to story ideas and want to know what you’re doing in your community, so please reach out! Drop us a line, or even a short video, we’d love to share it: ecovideo@archatl.com or tag us in your social media post @ArchATL.

The Air Around Us | People Planet & Health Podcast–EP:5
Breathe in. It’s a process so basic, we don’t really think about it. Exactly what we’re breathing in, and where we are doing that breathing, radically affects our health and wellbeing. Join us as we look at the air on our planet both medically and scientifically, and heed our spiritual call to protect life in the lungs of the earth, our fellow humans, and the multitude of creatures who live here with us. We travel to new heights—the top of Stone Mountain, GA—to get a better look at the air around us and talk about the invisible, but all-important aspects of air. Much like faith, we need and depend on it. Please tell us your stories about air quality in your life.

Water is Life | People, Planet & Health | EP:4
Water is at the basis of all life on earth. Organisms were formed in water, humans are made of 50-70% water, we drink it, eat plants and animals that live in or are sustained by it, we cleanse and recreate in it. Water is also highly symbolic in the Catholic Church; it is a key part of our faith throughout the Bible - from the waters of baptism to the sprinkling of holy water on our remains.Join us in the discovery of the impact water has on us (and we have on it) in and around Atlanta and Montana. Water is so important for our health and spirit - we are capable of change and renewal!Please tell us your stories about how water and waterways effect your life.

Community Gardens–Connecting People, Nutrition, and Local Food | People, Planet & Health | EP:3
Food is essential for life. But how, when, and where we get food can be eye-opening. In this episode, we talk about community gardens (especially those contributing to food pantries), spiritual ties to land and gardens, nutrients in soil, food, and our bodies, composting, and food waste. Small gardens and farms are a great way to build community – from the “ground” up. Do you have a small farm, or a community or food pantry garden? A food story to tell?

Understanding The Complex Problem Of Plastics | People, Planet and Health–Episode 2
Plastics are everywhere in our modern world, and this has created a complex intersection for our human existence. Plastic, in its many formulations, is chemical. It will have an impact on our lives, as well as biological processes and the environment. Plastics recycling is part of the solution, but more significantly, for our health and that of the planet, we need to reduce the amount of plastic produced—on course to double in the next decade. Have you found practical ways to eliminate plastic in your life? Are you helping others do it?
