A fundraiser for Biodiversity for a Livable Climate
Symbiotic Earth: How Lynn Margulis rocked the boat and started a scientific revolution is a new documentary created by award-winning filmmaker John Feldman. It weaves a complex story about how the radical ideas of scientist Lynn Margulis are fostering a new approach to understanding life which encourages a symbiotic and cooperative lifestyle. It strikes at the very core of the mechanistic worldview that success comes only through competitive struggle.

“Biologist Lynn Margulis spent her life making discoveries by finding things contrary to the hypotheses of Neo-Darwinism, the set of views that evolution happens at the genetic rather than the organismal level, a notion made popular by Richard Dawkin’s book The Selfish Gene. In challenging Neo-Darwinism, Margulis created a paradigm shift that’s reverberating through the foundations of biology, and beyond….”
