Full Description
This book lies at the intersection of environmental humanities and decision theory, political philosophy and science, and psychology and biology. Its storyline emerges from the perspective of biological evolution. It is hopeful yet realistic, guided by Al Gore's refrain that "we must not leap from denial to despair. We can do something and we must". It will contribute by: (i) contextualising global sustainability within the introduced open epistemic democracy framework; (ii) proposing a comprehensive conceptual decision-making model; (iii) highlighting the importance and basic means of individual and group attention-taking; (iv) promoting the democratisation of philosophy and thoughtful action; and (v) recommending a specific cluster of citizen and experts' techniques in aid of Earth's sustainability. In sum, it seeks to elucidate the basic social conditions for wisdom-making and its decision-taking to renew a reverence for all life on Earth.
