Description

In this revised edition of Choosing Earth (February 2022), Duane Elgin describes how the world has transitioned into an epoch of profound change. Choosing Earth illuminates this pivotal period in our human collective journey from adolescence into early adulthood and beyond. Elgin explains how we are moving through a challenging and purposeful initiation, as he takes us through the horrors and heartbreaks of the decades ahead and describes this as a time of both initiation and opportunity. We are invited to accept and integrate the grief and losses as part of the important process of maturation. Seven major uplifts point to the ways in which we can meet this crisis and grow. Elgin suggests that as more of us wake up, billions of ordinary citizens of the Earth will call with one collective voice for unprecedented cooperation and creative action. Each one of us alive today has an essential part to play in guiding our planetary trajectory along a wiser path of healing and maturing. Choosing Earth provides a powerful catalyst for collective conversation.
