Karenna Gore and Center for Earth Ethics see our ecological crisis as the consequence of a deeper malady: the dominant economic development agenda that results in the exploitation of people and nature for short-term and inequitable financial gain. So for real change to occur, a new paradigm based on the sustained well-being of all people and our planet must materialize.
How are Gore and the CEE working to make this happen? What is the role of spiritual, indigenous, and religious communities?
