The Great Work now, as we move into a new millennium, is to carry out the transition from a period of human devastation of the Earth to a period when humans would be present to the planet in a mutually beneficial manner.

Thomas Berry, The Great Work

The Great Turning is a name for the essential adventure of our time: the shift from the industrial growth society to a life-sustaining civilization.
