98: In Memory of Richard Heinberg 1950 – 2026
Brilliant journalist and educator Richard Heinberg passed away July 19 from pancreatic cancer. In his honor we’re sharing my last conversation with him here, about what turned out to be his last book, Power: Limits and Prospects for Human Survival.
This conversation was published as Episode 59 of the GrowthBusters podcast – Too Much of a Good Thing: Richard Heinberg, in October of 2021. Learn a lot more about Richard in my introduction.

The GrowthBusters theme song was written and produced by Jake Fader and sung by Carlos Jones.
On the GrowthBusters podcast, we come to terms with the limits to growth, explore the joy of sustainable living, and provide a recovery program from our society’s growth addiction (economic/consumption and population). This podcast is part of the GrowthBusters project to raise awareness of overshoot and end our culture’s obsession with, and pursuit of, growth.
Dave Gardner directed the documentary GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth, which Stanford Biologist Paul Ehrlich declared “could be the most important film ever made.” Co-host, and self-described “energy nerd,” Stephanie Gardner has degrees in Environmental Studies and Environmental Law & Policy.
