About the Event
Larry Rasmussen is Reinhold Niebuhr Professor of Social Ethics, emeritus, at Union Theological Seminary. He is the author of Earth-honoring Faith, and Earth Community, Earth Ethics, winner of the Grawemeyer Award. His latest book, The Planet You Inherit is "an impassioned call to action on climate change and the role faith might play in allaying it. In a series of dispatches addressed to his young grandsons, Rasmussen waxes poetic on humanity’s future and expounds on the role that Christianity can play in the climate crisis. He explains that his grandsons’ generation marks the transition from the Holocene to the Anthropocene, the first epoch during which Earth’s climate will be significantly impacted by humans." - Publishers Weekly
