Hi from a windowless office!!

[ericbrymer]

Just a quick introduction.

What a great idea and sharing forum. I am particularily interested in the human-nature relationship. I have a suspicion that developing a stronger relationship with nature might help sustainability? I would love to hear from anyone who has anything to say about this issue - for that matter even if you don't.

One day I hope to live in the Indian forests and am always looking for opportunities to work in India!!

I would be great to hear from people on or off line

Hello Eric, and welcome to the forum.

Very good point - if not the developing of a stronger relationship, then at least gaining a better understanding of the natural environment, is of major importance in the promotion of sustainability, in all aspects of human activity!

Hi

I can see your point about understanding - so to understand do we interlectauly understand? experientially understand? understand from an abstract distance? understand by living and becoming the experience?

As an anthropocentric concept perhaps we can only understand from a distance - the more we understand the more we are in a position to control and master?? perhas from an ecocentric perspective we may have to undersatdn by living, by becoming, by connecting. Perhaps then we care from a perpsective of family, self - the natural world loses its status as other and becomes unity with humanity - we behave as if we would do with our self???

ramblings and musings .... from a windowless office??

guess where I would prefer to be!!

Hi Eric

Welcome to the board.

If you really want to work in India and live in Indian forest, only contact some NGO like WWF or similar. They would be able to arrange something.

For other kinds of jobs in India we have portals like

Naukri.com - Search Jobs in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore - Career - India
Job Search for U.S. Jobs - JobSearch.com
Find Jobs. Build a Better Career. Find Your Calling. | Monster.com

may help
