232. Our Story of Nature: From Rupture to Reconnection - Part Three - Living AS Nature

Published: Feb. 15, 2024, 1:30 a.m.

This week, Christiana Figueres and her guest co-host Isabel Cavelier Adarve introduce the third and final episode in their mini-series, Our Story of Nature: From Rupture to Reconnection.

In this episode, Living As Nature, co-hosts and a stellar cast of guests use the pandemic as their jumping off point to unpack how a moment of physical separation, from each other and the natural world, became a strange chrysalis to stronger and deeper interconnections.\xa0

Contributors from across many religious and spiritual traditions, including Bayo Akomolafe, public intellectual,\xa0 and Sister True Dedication,Zen Buddhist monastic teacher\xa0 join Christiana and Isabel to discuss how developing a sense of reverence and responsibility for the Earth leads to both personal and systemic transformation.\xa0

They ask: how can our unprecedented ecological and social crises become an opportunity for the foundation of a new way of relating to each other and to nature? How can we move away from living from nature to living as nature, so that we can grow and flourish?\xa0

This episode is part of a series that shines a new light on humanity\u2019s fundamental relationship with the rest of nature as key to responding to the climate crisis and to transitioning into a regenerative future.\xa0
