The earth has a skin and that skin is diseased; the disease is called humanity”. So said Nietzsche.
Biologists now claim that the predatory character of humans is leading to the sixth mass extinction: the Anthropocene extinction.
With industrial farming contributing to this event, is it time to rethink our relationship with the earth? Instead of considering what is best for humans, should we see nature as something sacred rather than a resource to be mined, and by doing so revolutionize how we eat?
Or is this pagan nonsense, and should we instead regard humans as a product of nature, and see our dominance of the earth as a natural outcome of evolution that is neither good nor bad?
Join us for a unique evening of debate and discussion as our renowned speakers explore whether it’s time to rethink our relationship with the Earth. As biologists predict the upcoming Anthropocene extinction, is our dominance over the earth a natural outcome of evolution, or a signal for us to revolutionize how we eat in order to change the course of history?
