Tom Heap drops in on the 50th anniversary celebrations of the green magazine Resurgence. 

With its origins in the peace movement, the magazine has championed the spiritual side of the ecological movement. 

Tom talks to some of its most famous contributors - and their critics - to take stock of what the last half century of green activism has - and hasn't - achieved.

'Resurgence' is 50 years old:

QUEST FOR HARMONY

We were delighted that HRH The Prince of Wales recorded a personal video address entitled 'Quest for Harmony' for the Resurgence 50th anniversary celebrations held in Oxford from 22 to 25 Sep 2016. The video was first shown during the opening ceremony of 'One Earth, One Humanity, One Future' - a four day event that brought together leading figures from the world’s green and social justice movements and 50 plus international speakers and performers to celebrate 50 years of the UK's longest standing green magazine Resurgence (Resurgence & Ecologist since 2012).
