John Seed interview

Heard John Seed on Radio National tonight talking about deep ecology and our place on the earth. His words were inspiring because he is so clear about unclear things, and makes the point that we can't answer the big questions - it is all hanging in the balance. It is certainly going to be the end of the world as we know it, and possibly the end of we humans. But he makes the point that miracles occur all the time (and gave examples), so anything is possible. The idea is not to be inactive once we find our 'eco spirituality' but to develop our own way of responding to the needs of the planet, which has the disease called humans (as per a cartoon by Lewis pictured). These are my words and probably an incorrect interpretation of what he was saying. I would have to go to a deep ecology workshop to find out more about this style of thinking or rather feeling. He talked about Joanna Macy who is another interesting figure in the deep ecology movement.
