Wednesday:

The main environmental problems are not the loss of biodiversity, the collapse of ecosystems and climate change, but greed, selfishness, and apathy. These problems call for a spiritual and cultural transformation, which does not only depend on scientists. Better understanding of the complex feedback process between one's identity and global environmental change is urgently needed. This presentation explores a journey from ecology to sustainability, and from political economy to psychology and spirituality.

The seminar will be online format.
