What is the power of photography? How do images and songs bookmark our lives, reminding us of what we care about, who we love, and what it means to be alive? Julian Lennon is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter, photographer, documentary filmmaker, and NYTimes bestselling author of the Touch the Earth children’s book trilogy. This autumn, Whispers – A Julian Lennon Retrospective is being presented at Le Stanze della Fotografia, culminating in the publication of Life’s Fragile Moments, his first photography book. It features a compilation of images that span over two decades of Lennon's unique life, career, adventures, and philanthropy. He founded The White Feather Foundation in 2007, whose key initiatives are education, health, conservation, and the protection of indigenous cultures. He was the executive producer of Kiss the Ground and other environmental documentaries and was named a Peace Laureate by UNESCO in 2020. “I think a lot of joy comes from helping others. One of the things that I've been really focusing on is finding that balance in life, what’s real and what’s true and what makes you happy. How can you help other people feel the same and have a happier life? I think whatever that takes. So if that's charity, if that's photography, if that's documentary, if that's music, and I can do it, then I'm going to do it.”

At the heart of One Planet Podcast is a simple, urgent idea: the intertwined fate of humanity and the natural world is the defining narrative of our time. This series moves beyond headlines to explore the complex, often surprising connections between climate change, global politics, and tangible environmental solutions. In each episode, you’ll hear from the people on the front lines-policy makers from bodies like the European Commission, scientists from the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network, and activists from organizations including EARTHDAY.ORG and UNESCO. Their conversations dig into the real-world mechanics of a circular economy, the practical challenges of achieving net-zero emissions, and the quiet crisis of biodiversity loss affecting wildlife and ecosystems globally. The dialogue consistently returns to actionable hope, examining how regenerative agriculture can restore land, how renewable energy transitions are unfolding, and how individual carbon footprints fit into systemic change. Produced by Creative Process Original Series, this podcast is for anyone who seeks a deeper, more nuanced understanding of our ecological moment. It’s a space where the grand concepts of sustainability are broken down into human stories and strategic discussions, offering listeners not just analysis, but a sense of direction and possibility for the future we are all shaping together.
