Wow! We went live today with Paul Wheaton and Shawn Klassen-Koop to chat about permaculture, crowdfunding, luxuriant environmentalism, and their new book, "Building a Better World in Your Backyard Instead of Being Angry at Bad Guys."

(It was awesome, you should definitely watch the whole thing.)

Building a Better World in Your Backyard takes a look at some of the things that the average person can do, right where they live, to help mitigate world problems, save money, and make their footprint on the planet virtually disappear.

About our guests:

Paul Wheaton is bonkers about permaculture. He has gone so far as to make a 3-DVD set that is just about the earthworks for permaculture gardening. And not only did he make a 4-DVD set about rocket mass heaters, but he made ANOTHER 4-DVD set about rocket mass heaters.

Before all of that, Paul created hundreds of podcasts, youtube videos, articles, and other bits and bobs about permaculture. And he used to be a software engineer before all this permaculture stuff.

Shawn Klassen-Kloop's passion for building a better world grew from many years of working at a summer camp. Seeking to solve world problems with clever thinking, Shawn decided to pursue computer engineering as a career, where he learned the importance of good design and strong critical thinking.

In time he felt like modern technology was causing more problems than it was solving and started looking for a better way. It was then that he stumbled upon and fell in love with permaculture as a way to use his design skills to work with nature rather than against nature.
