If we environmentalists stay locked in the frame that environmentalism has to fight human nature to win, we'll lose. Instead, we can celebrate human nature -- our desire for more meaning, power, and connection. With an eco-mind, we increasingly see the connectedness of all life, and thus endless opportunities for gratifying those needs and more.
- Frances Moore Lappé
Lappé explores these ideas further in EcoMind: Changing the Way We Think to Create the World We Want, new April 23, 2013 in paperback from Nation Books.
