SUMMARY:How Can Humanity Rise to Meet Our Emerging Future
DESCRIPTION:Humanity is at a crossroads: we are on the precipice of destroying our habitat\, the very earth that gives us sustenance and supports life. How do we go forward to create a better world? This presentation by Betsey Downing\, Ph.D\, focuses on mental and emotional skills to develop the maturity and resilience needed to rise to meet our challenges. \nBetsey Downing\, Ph.D.\, was a meditation and yoga teacher for nearly 45 years\, before retiring to become a volunteer climate educator. She has given lectures on our climate crisis\, lobbied Congress for a fee and dividend on fossil fuels\, and has led a bi-weekly climate discussion group for the past 5 years. In January she plans to start a free book discussion group\, based on Training in Compassion: Zen Teachings on the Practice of Lojong\, by Norman Fischer\, a longtime Zen teacher. \n  \nThis talk will be presented via a Zoom session. You do not need a Zoom account to “attend” this virtual meeting.  If you would like to be a participant in the meeting\, please email us at info@ncethicalsociety.org and provide your first and last name in your request.
