Oxygen: The Molecule that Made the World — The Energy System That Limits Life
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores Oxygen: The Molecule that Made the World by Nick Lane as a systems-level analysis of how oxygen metabolism influences biological complexity, aging, and evolutionary trade-offs.
By focusing on incentive architecture rather than isolated biological processes, the episode shows why this system persists — and how it connects to larger geochemical, evolutionary, and physiological structures.
