Sustainability is a word that has been in our popular lexicon for over 30 years, so why is it that little has changed in that time? Re-Envisioning Ritual: A Culture At Odds With Sustainability takes new academic discourse that claims that it is our cultural values and beliefs that is creating the most resistance to a more sustainable life, not technology. Using ritualistic behaviour as a means to examine how cultural beliefs are enacted and reinforced, we analyzed how our current ritauals might be re-envisioned towards a sustainable future.
