The Dawn of the Ecozoic Era

The term "Ecozoic Era" was coined by renowned ecologist and philosopher Fritjof Capra, who envisions a future in which humanity recognizes its interconnectedness with all living beings and acts accordingly. This transition, he argues, requires a fundamental shift in our values, beliefs, and economic systems towards a more holistic and regenerative approach.
