Symposium: Turning Toward the Earth

TURNING TOWARD THE EARTH:                                         A Conversation with Leading Environmentalists and Buddhists

Our symposium was held May 1, 2010 in the Dryden Theatre at George Eastman House.  

Here is a link to a presentation by one of our speakers, Stephanie Kaza  -  Unlearning Consumerism:  Toward a Mindful Society.

Photos from the symposium are here.

 

 

How can we best respond to the gathering environmental crisis affecting our planet Earth?  To what extent should science govern our response to this crisis?  What role should spirituality and compassion play?  How much of a transformation do we each need to enact in our own lives?  Come and hear four widely-published international speakers address the environmental challenges we now face.
