Résumé

Even as seas rise against the shores, another great tide is beginning to rise— a tide of outrage against the pillage of the planet, a tide of commitment to justice and human rights, a swelling affirmation of moral responsibility to the future and to Earth's fullness of life. Philosopher and nature essayist Kathleen Dean Moore takes on the essential questions : Why is it wrong to wreck the world ? What is our obligation to the future ? What is the transformative power of moral resolve ? How can clear thinking stand against the lies and illogic that batter the chances for positive change ? What are useful answers to the recurring questions of a storm-threatened time—what can anyone do ? Is there any hope ? And always this : What stories and ideas will lift people who deeply care, inspiring them to move forward with clarity and moral courage ?
