This book advances Earth Stewardship toward a planetary scale,
presenting a range of ecological worldviews, practices, and
institutions in different parts of the world and to use them as the
basis for considering what we could learn from one another, and
what we could do together. Today, inter-hemispheric, intercultural,
and transdisciplinary collaborations for Earth Stewardship are an
imperative. Chapters document pathways that are being forged by
socio-ecological research networks, religious alliances, policy
actions, environmental citizenship and participation, and new forms
of conservation, based on both traditional and contemporary
ecological knowledge and values. "The Earth Stewardship Initiative
of the Ecological Society of America fosters practices to provide a
stable basis for civilization in the future. Biocultural ethic
emphasizes that we are co-inhabitants in the natural world; no
matter how complex our inventions may become" (Peter Raven).
