ABOUT THIS EVENT

“Humans have now created a globalized gigantic system of consumption and production which impacts the world. It changes the climate, it has led to the sixth great extinction event, and it is leading to the seventh, which is us.”

Environmental Philosopher, Dr. Glenn A. Albrect, is the author of 2019’s Earth Emotions. Bringing both theoretical and applied interests in the relationship between ecosystem and human health, he has pioneered the research of “psychoterratic” or earth-related mental health, with the concept of “solastalgia” – or the lived experience of negative environmental change. He has also written about animal ethics, including the ethics of relocating endangered species in the face of climate change pressures.

Dr. Albrecht joins us via live stream from his home in Australia.
