Gaia, Ecology and Climate Change
Nature is not just around us, rather we are nature ourselves. This section offers resources to understand Gaia, our living earth as well as on how we can move from an anthropocentric to an eco-centric world-view.
The Earth was born about 4.6 billion years ago. Life as we know it emerged 3.5 billion years ago and ever since the earth has sustained conditions for life to continue. Hence the best lessons on sustainability can be learnt from life or Nature herself. Resources to understand and apply Nature’s or ecological principles are also part of this section.
