Sinopsis

When we consider the magnificent and diverse natural world in which we live, it isn’t hard to be impressed. The ecosystems of our human relationships are no different. Predator-prey, in-group and out-group, scarcity and abundance – they are all at play in our daily lives. When we understand our relationships through the lens of how nature works, we may develop the insight of how to relate to one another better. Going with the grain of nature rather than fighting it may align us better with what is good. Éric has been National Executive Director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society since April 2009.
