The Rewilding Summit: Opening Session with Micah Mortali and Zelda Hotaling

Nurture Your Connection with the Earth

Artificial intelligence, robotics, cryptocurrency, and other accelerating technologies are reshaping our world in profound and unpredictable ways. For many, this era of rapid change can feel disorienting, ungrounding, overwhelming, scary, and uncertain. And yet, it is precisely in times like these that our relationship with the living world becomes most essential.

The built and digital worlds of humanity are remarkable, but they rest upon a deeper, older, and more mysterious foundation—the living Earth and Cosmos that sustains all life. Rewilding is a remembering of that truth. It is a returning to the knowing that nature holds us, teaches us, and nourishes us—and that through relationship with the Earth and one another, we can rediscover guidance, joy, beauty, resilience, belonging, and meaning. How can we adapt to a changing world, while keeping our feet firmly rooted in the wisdom of the living Earth? This is our inquiry.
