Modern Crises and Ancient Gods | David King, Sister Jayanti, Natalie Bennett

Looking for a link we mentioned? It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimes For much of human history, nature was our god. Yet now science and technology, which once we used to tame nature, are increasingly seen as plundering the planet and wrecking the climate. Were the ancients right, and nature the source of all things and that which we should guard most closely? Or should we instead renew our belief in progress and human ingenuity to solve our current problems? In this episode of Philosophy for our Times, David King, Sister Jayanti and Natalie Bennett tackle modern crises with ancient gods.
