An inspiring anthology for anyone seeking guidance, hope, and strength
in the midst of our current environmental crisis--featuring writings
from Barbara Kingsolver and Barry Lopez
The environmental "tipping point" we approach is more palpable each day,
and people are seeing it in ways they can no longer ignore--we need only
turn on the news to hear the litany of what is wrong around us. Serious
reflection, inspiration, and direction on how to approach the future are
now critical.
Hope Beneath Our Feet creates a space for change with stories,
meditations, and essays that address the question, "If our world is
facing an imminent environmental catastrophe, how do I live my life
right now?" This collection provides tools, both practical and
spiritual, to those who care about our world and to those who are just
now realizing they need to care. Featuring prominent environmentalists,
artists, CEOs, grassroots activists, religious figures, scientists,
policy makers, and indigenous leaders, Hope Beneath Our Feet shows
readers how to find constructive ways to channel their energies and
fight despair with engagement and participation. Presenting diverse
strategies for change as well as grounds for hope, the contributors to
this anthology celebrate the ways in which we can all engage in
beneficial action for ourselves, our communities, and the world.
