Description
In this innovative and deeply felt work, Bron Taylor examines the evolution of "green religions" in North America and beyond: spiritual practices that hold nature as sacred and have, in many cases, replaced traditional religions. Tracing a wide range of groups - radical environmental activists, lifestyle-focused bioregionalists, surfers, new-agers involved in "ecopsychology", and groups that hold scientific narratives as sacred - Taylor addresses a central theoretical question: How can environmentally oriented, spiritually motivated individuals and movements be understood as religious when many of them reject religious and supernatural worldviews?
The "dark" of the title further expands this idea by emphasizing the depth of believers' passion and also suggesting a potential shadow side: besides uplifting and inspiring, such religion might mislead, deceive, or in some cases precipitate violence. This book provides a fascinating global tour of the green religious phenomenon, enabling listeners to evaluate its worldwide emergence and to assess its role in a critically important religious revolution.
The book is published by University of California Press.

Overly concerned with nomenclature
I generally lap this type of book upbut to my mind if was hung up on the justification of the term Dark Green Religion which essentially and simplistically refers to environmental activism.
Its not bad as a read it just doesn’t advance my knowledge of environmentalism, green spiritualism or provide in depth information regarding activism. Dark Green Religion draws from what we already know and therefore fails to make the grade as far as my desire for further knowledge into this subject goes.
