Earth Turning (Healing Our Relationship with the Living World and Finding Our Way Back Home)

The Turning Has Already Begun

Many people feel caught between love for the Earth and uncertainty about what difference one life can make. The global ecological crisis is often described as a problem of carbon emissions, pollution, biodiversity loss, climate change, and politics. But beneath these visible challenges lies a question: How did we lose our sense of belonging to the living world?

With warmth and wisdom, Katrina Rogers weaves together personal stories, scientific research, psychology, history, and timeless questions about what it means to live well on a living planet. She suggests that the way we care for the Earth begins with the way we see it and our place within it, inviting readers on a journey of rediscovery that reveals how healing the planet begins by renewing our relationship with it.

Rather than offering quick fixes or easy answers, Earth Turning offers something more compelling: a way of seeing that awakens curiosity, compassion, and courage. It reminds us that action does not belong only to governments, corporations, or activists. It begins wherever we are, through the choices we make, the relationships we nurture, and the future we choose to create.

Thought-provoking and well-researched, Earth Turning invites readers to see the world with fresh eyes and discover that meaningful change begins closer to home than we imagine.
