Spotlights, 4.23, Peter Sloterdijk and Prometheus’s Remorse

This is the final episode of the fourth season of Spotlights. In this short episode, our host gives a quick summary of how the podcast has grown in the last four years. Then he gives a brief overview of a new book on climate change from the German philosopher Peter Sloterdijk, Prometheus’s Remorse: From the Gift of Fire to Global Arson. It's a good account of the cultural, ecological, and ethical implications of humanity's unique and complicated relationship with fire. The Forum on Religion and Ecology podcast will be back with a new season of episodes soon. Now is a good time to go through previous seasons to catch any episodes you might have missed, or enjoy some of your favorite episodes a second time.
