Weston Roundtable Lecture: Power, Life and Ecological Maturity

In this Earth Day Lecture, Nate Hagens will offer nine paths for individuals to cultivate resilience during uncertain times, in service of all life on Earth. From intellectual and ecological to spiritual and psychological, these act as signposts guiding the way through an uncertain future. Perhaps, if we’re able to move beyond the goals of individual power and wealth toward collective wisdom and restraint, we might still be able to heal humanity’s relationship with the biosphere and revitalize our one and only planetary home.

Hagens is the executive director of the Institute for the Study of Energy & Our Future and host of the podcast, The Great Simplification.

Hosted by Nelson Institute Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment
