A revolutionary perspective on the climate catastrophe bridging
history, philosophy, science, and religion. You’ve heard the
hard-hitting data and you’ve seen the documentaries. But what
will it truly take for humanity to change? We will not tackle the
climate catastrophe with data alone – we need new stories and new
ways of seeing and thinking. By drawing on traditional
eco-philosophies and Buddhist wisdom, Erik Jampa Andersson offers
an approach to our environmental emergency that will make us
rethink the very nature of our existence on this incredible planet.
Looking at the climate catastrophe through the framework of
disease, Unseen Beings examines our ecological diagnosis, its
historical causes and conditions and, crucially, its much-needed
treatment, as well as exploring: · how and why we constructed a
human-centric worldview · amazing recent discoveries around
non-human intelligence · how religious traditions have dealt with
questions of nature, sentience and ecology · critical connections
between human health and environmental health This book is a call
to action. Climate anxiety has left many of us feeling confused and
powerless, but there is another way. If we can recover our natural
sense of enchantment and kinship with non-human beings, we may
still find a path to build a better future.
