This groundbreaking book explores the inherent interconnectedness
of sustainability and spirituality, acknowledging the dependency of
one upon the other. John E. Carroll contends that true ecological
sustainability, in contrast to the cosmetic attempts at
sustainability we see around us, questions our society's
fundamental values and is so countercultural that it is resisted by
anyone without a spiritual belief in something deeper than
efficiency, technology, or economics. Carroll draws on the work of
cultural historian and "geologian" Thomas Berry, whose
eco-spiritual thought underlies many of the sustainability efforts
of communities described in this book, including particular
branches of Catholic religious orders and the loosely organized
Sisters of the Earth. The writings of Native Americans on
spirituality and ecology are also highlighted. These models for
sustainability not only represent the tangible link between ecology
and spirituality, but also, more importantly, a vision of what
could be.
