This volume builds on an international workshop held in 2019,
inspired by James Lovelock's "The Revenge of Gaia - Why the Earth
Is Fighting Back, and How We Can Still Save Humanity". It,
therefore, understands the Gaia concept as an umbrella term for the
living world that planet Earth is hosting for nearly 4 billion
years. Humankind has intervened in this ecosystem since its
emergence on the planet about 2.5 million years ago, often with
painful consequences for itself. In its reactions, the Earth system
follows only the laws of nature. Consequently, humanity needs to
develop strategies for a sustainable Earth system. This volume
presents a unique trans- and interdisciplinary variety of
approaches to this challenge, offering philosophical considerations
as well as practical medical research. It addresses a broad
knowledgeable and general audience in environmental management,
public administration, and higher education alike.
