Responding effectively to climate change

Responding to climate change effectively requires understanding it deeply.

For a Buddhist view on the roots of climate change, read the excerpt from the new book A Buddhist Response to the Climate Emergency, featured in yesterday’s Shambhala Times post Buddhadharma and the Planetary Crisis. Also, see the other Shambhala Times articles tagged Buddhist Response to Climate Change.

If you’d like to join in the Kootenay Shambhala Centre’s efforts to bring this view down to earth through practical action, locally and beyond, contact Russell Rodgers or Jim Northcote at info@nelsonbuddha.com.

    I received the following comment by email yesterday:

    “I noticed that you referenced a book on Buddhism and Ecology. Without having read the book, this site [http://www.ecobuddhism.org] might be more pertinent as a link to send people. Personally, I never buy a book unless I know the author or am able to hold it in my hand and look at it. I suspect others are like that too.”
