Symbiotic Earth

Symbiotic Earth

0 - Default Title
Description
SYMBIOTIC EARTH explores the life and ideas of scientific rebel Lynn Margulis who challenged entrenched theories of male-dominated science to present a new vision: life evolves through collaboration. As a young scientist in the 1960s, Margulis was ridiculed when she first proposed that symbiosis, when organisms live and work together, was a key driver of evolution, but she persisted. Through her passion for the microbial world, including pioneering insights into the importance of bacteria for all living systems, she caused a seismic shift in our understanding of life.

Margulis s symbiotic narrative presents an alternative to the destructive worldview that has led to climate change and extreme capitalism. With James Lovelock, she developed the Gaia Theory that all life is interconnected and interdependent. Margulis s vision offers bold insights into health, society, and nature, and inspires creative approaches to our pressing environmental and social crises.
