On March 29, I was honored to be interviewed by noted Marxist economist Michael Roberts about my new book, Metabolic Rifts: Capitalism’s Assault on the Earth System .
Correction: at one point in the discussion, I said that the “N” in DNA stands for “Nitrogen.” In fact, of course, it stands for “Nucleic.” I don’t know why I misspoke, but I surely did.
