Mindfulness and Environmental Justice

This page is divided into three sections all focused on resources that can help with working on environmental justice from a mindfulness perspective. I am referencing resources that I have personally found helpful and to help you get an idea of what they are like, I have indicated the level which I think the resources are appropriate for, the topic covered and given my opinion of why the resource is worth checking out.

1. Resources on secular mindfulness and the environment
3. Resources on Buddhism and the environment
4. Resources on environmental issues in general

1. Resources on Mindfulness and the Envt

I mention the 'Mindfulness and Climate Action' series which One Earth Sangha is running for 5 weeks and is an opportunity to explore the connection between the two.
