Episode 143 - The Eco-Rabbi: A Conversation with Yonatan Neril

Jews You Should Know

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Yonatan Neril may be a minority voice within the observant Jewish community, but he is a passionate and powerful one. Marshaling scores of Jewish sources - meticulously outlined in his book, Eco Bible - he argues for a new attitude towards sustainability and environmental consciousness from within the confines of Jewish tradition.

Yonatan founded and directs both Jewish Eco Seminars and The Interfaith Center for Sustainable Development (ICSD).
