Overview

The human race is facing the greatest challenge in its existence due to climate change. Yet, if you talk to most people or read the newspaper, all you see is business as usual. Why? "Walking the Talk" suggests that at least part of the problem is because society has rejected the two ideals of faith and patriotism, which is what were used to mobilize the citizenry to make heroic efforts in the face of past crises. While Bill Hulet agrees that these two motivators were horribly misused in the past and need to be replaced, he suggests that the substitutes on offer, "self actualization" and "following your bliss", are not enough to fill the void. Instead, Hulet suggests that people acquaint themselves with "practical philosophy" as manifested in Western and Eastern philosophy, such as Stoicism and Daoism.
