There Is No Point of No Return
There Is No Point of No Return

Environmental philosophy challenging perceived ecological endpoints.

If you're someone who senses the urgency of our environmental crisis but feels overwhelmed by pessimistic narratives, this book could shift your perspective. Arne Næss offers a provocative stance on the environment wrapped in philosophy, nudging you to re-examine the concept of a point of no return and perhaps, find a glimmer of hope in the seeming direness. It advocates for deeper environmental commitment without succumbing to despair.
