World Wisdoms Project and the 301 Faith Partners'
Social and Eco-Justice ministries present
“Does a mountain stream evoke awe in you and can that experience engage us to care for the earth? Can the wonder of a fish swimming upstream motivate environmental activism?”
Join us in an online dialogue entitled, “Awe, Ethics, and River Conversation.” Participants are invited to join in the conversation as a philosopher and a stream ecologist discuss the experience of awe and its relationship to environmental ethics.


Kurt Fausch, Professor Emeritus CSU Conservation Biologist and Katie McShane, Professor of Philosophy, CSU will lead the discussion.


The event is free of charge. Click here to register.
