Falling in Love with Nature

Join us for an evening of silence, inspiration, and conversation with paleontologist and science communicator Scott Sampson, PhD ("Dr. Scott" on the PBS KIDS series Dinosaur Train).

Sampson will speak on what he considers one of the most pressing needs of our time – Falling in Love with Nature.  He will then open a thought-provoking discussion on the role of mindful practice and awakened action in achieving sustainable societies.  How can ancient principles and practices of mindfulness be leveraged to reverse the trends of ecological collapse driven by our dysfunctional relationship with nature?
