This piece is by way of tribute to His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. I was privileged to meet him in the mid-1990s when I was National Campaign Director of the Australian Wilderness Society and we convened a conference on Tibetan Wilderness (an idea conceived by activist Chris Doran) held in Sydney, Australia.

Pre-1750 Wilderness Extent
The jaguar padded through continuous forest from Mexico's Yucatan to Colombia's Darién Gap, never leaving tree cover across 2,000 kilometers.¹ Central America's narrow isthmus—never more than 200 kilometers wide—functioned as Earth's great biological bridge, enabling species exchange between continents for three million years...
The question of whether Christianity can become genuinely "green" forces us into uncomfortable theological and philosophical territory. It requires confronting not merely lapses in practice but potential flaws in foundational doctrine, while simultaneously excavating buried wisdom that mainstream Christianity has systematically suppressed. The tension between recovering lost...
We have been taught to look down. To see the airports, the concrete, the crowds, and the queues as the footprint of flight. Or we look at the numbers, the comforting, almost negligible figures. Aviation, the industry tells us, accounts for just 2.5% of global CO2 emissions.¹

The question Philip K. Dick posed in 1968 was never really about sheep.
It was about the ineffable thing that separates life from simulation, consciousness from computation, being from seeming. In his dystopian San Francisco, where nuclear fallout had rendered authentic animals nearly extinct, owning a real sheep...
