How Buddhism can help solve our environmental challenges: “Though her book is dense with facts, it reads like poetry or a series of koans.” —The Shambhala Sun
 
We know that our earth is in crisis, but is the situation beyond repair? Are we on a path of planetary disaster where the only proper response is to prepare for our melancholic dystopian future? Is there a way out of our suspicious cynicism?
 
In this book, a dharma heir of Robert Aitken Roshi uses this spiritual opportunity to change the very nature of our crisis—offering a profound message presented with clarity and assurance, and showing that engaged Buddhism provides a possible path to the necessary repair and healing.
