Radio Open Source: “Congenitally buoyant” Nick Mabey

By Quentin de Molliens

The Radio Open Source blog carries an article looking at the 10th annual Symi Symposium event organized by the Andreas G. Papandreou Foundation.

The article reports that this year, the conversation took place in Paros, Greece and explored “the consequences of climate change to policies on the environment, development, energy security, and international governance”.

Blog author and radio show host Christopher Lydon posted his reflections on the symposium’s conversations, including that:

Nick Mabey, a congenitally buoyant “change agent” from London, threw up his hands at the conversions required in domestic and global alliances, in public and private investments, in universal definitions of justice — all unprecedented in human history. “Money and technology are not the real constraints,” Mabey observed. “We do not have the politics.”
