Over the years, Bill Moyers has spoken with many of the world’s leading authors, philosophers and theologians about their spiritual connection to nature and all it entails. Many say respecting the earth is a cornerstone of their spiritual beliefs, which in turn informs the decisions they make every day. Click below to watch five guests talk about the importance of respecting the planet and how we can live in harmony with nature by the choices we make such as the food we eat and the way we treat others. We’ve also included Bringing Gardens to the Food Desert, an inspiring video we produced on how a local farmers market is bringing fresh food and joy to a community in Brooklyn.
