Description

Engage with leading scientists, academics, ethicists, and activists, as well as His Holiness the Dalai Lama and His Holiness the Karmapa, who gathered in Dharamsala, India, for the twenty-third Mind and Life conference to discuss arguably the most urgent questions facing humanity today:

– What is happening to our planet?
– What can we do about it?
– How do we balance the concerns of people against the rights of animals and against the needs of an ecosystem?
– What is the most skillful way to enact change?
– And how do we fight on, even when our efforts seem to bear no fruit?
Inspiring, edifying, and transformative, this should be required reading for any citizen of the world.

“We need this one. Here is a book that looks at the global ecological crisis from many, many angles, each one bringing the challenge—and what to do about it—more and more into focus. This is an important book.”

—Jeff Bridges, actor and environmental activist
