The Indian activist Sunderlal Bahuguna stated: we ought to recognise “this whole earth” as our extended family, and renounce the human-centric greed we all experience from living in our “money order economy”.
In this thought-provoking session led by Sociologist Dr Peter Gardner, we will explore the deep-rooted human-centrism shaping our diets, economies, laws, climate goals and outlooks. We’ll examine the alternative: ecocentrism—a worldview that sees all life, from octopuses to oysters, from forests to rivers, from soils to ecosystems – as holding fundamental value. Together, we will think through some of the implications of applying an ecocentric outlook in our everyday lives and across society.
Peter’s session will include a one-pot vegetarian supper and discussion.
Jacobs Well, Trinity Lane, York, YO1 6EL
Doors open at 6.30pm for drinks. Talk starts at 7pm.
£15 per ticket, food complimentary.
