Sacred Ecology examines bodies of knowledge held by indigenous and other rural peoples around the world, and asks how we can learn from this knowledge and ways of knowing. This term was reintroduced to our lexicon by Dr. Fikret Berkes in his book found under the same title.

Dr Berkes approaches traditional ecological knowledge as a knowledge-practice-belief complex. This complex considers four interrelated levels: local knowledge (species specific); resource management systems (integrating local knowledge with practice); social institutions (rules and codes of behavior); and world view (religion, ethics, and broadly defined belief systems).

Similar to Sacred Ecology is the concept of Spiritual Ecology that suggests a critical need to recognize and address the spiritual dynamics at the root of environmental degradation.

According to Nasa, almost two-thirds of the world is a desert or has entered into a desertification process. Top scientists and researchers all over the world all agree that our single most effective defense against the continued effects of global warming is reforestation. Using ancient wisdom and holistic agriculture, we can capture carbon emissions and bring life back to our soil, water, air, and earth within 20 years.
