We’re living in unprecedented times with climate deniers occupying
the highest levels of government and the USA pulling out of the
Paris climate accords… with species rapidly disappearing, global
temperatures rising, and a growing urgency to do something
meaningful to act on the ecological crises we face… two key
questions arise… How can we stay sane in the face of such blatant
denial? And how can we take wise action”

Stephanie Kaza is Professor Emerita of Environmental Studies at the
University of Vermont. A leading Buddhist environmentalist, she has
spent her career exploring the intersection of religion and
ecology, and is the author of Mindfully Green: A Personal and
Spiritual Guide to Whole Earth Thinking, Conversations With Trees:
An Intimate Ecology, the editor of Hooked! Buddhist Writings on
Greed, Desire, and the Urge to Consume. And co-editor of Dharma
Rain: Sources of Buddhist Environmentalism.

Stephanie Kaza joins Sandie this week o talk about her latest book
– Green Buddhism: Practice and Compassionate Action in Uncertain

them.
