The Evolving Relationship Between Humans and Earth
Presenter: Stephanie Ferrera, MSW
Faculty Member, Center for Family Consultation
Man has overcome many of the forces that threatened his existence in former centuries. …He has become increasingly more in control of his environment (Family Therapy in Clinical Practice, 272).
How has human evolution and history brought us to our present state of relationship with Earth, both the success and the predicament? Ms. Ferrera will review eras of human social and economic growth from the foragers to the farmers to the discovery of fossil fuels. She will explore ideas from several scholars on the human economic growth trajectory, how it impacted the natural world and transformed values, beliefs and the structure and function of families and societies.
