The philosophy of deep ecology reaches the very roots of environmental problems. It focuses on the effectiveness of actions taken to save the nature from destruction, while avoiding superficial, symbolic gestures. In this sense, deep ecology is not only about the clean up the world campaigns or metal straws. Taking the garbage from the forest path and moving it to a place that we conventionally call a garbage dump does not make the garbage disappear. It disappears from our sight, and with it leaves our awareness of the problem of the never-ending production of waste. Deep ecology intends to get to the root of the modern world’s problems and remove their causes rather than effects. The way to do this is by asking deep, inquisitive questions – the essence of philosophy.
During our guided philosophical walks, we will ask children about why we live the way we do. What is the meaning of life? What are the most important goals in life? Which values do we really need? Why do we destroy nature? What is the right way to live?

The workshop is for children at the age of 7-12.
