Featuring Heather Eaton, PhD
The conversation will consider ways that understanding the new cosmology expands our horizons, changes our reference points, informs a robust ecological vision, is infused with spirituality and strengthens activism. To consider cosmology in the face if the current ecological crises and political instabilities may seem irrelevant, but it is not. The presentation and conversation will explore how cosmology is increasing relevant to a fragmented, troubled world.
