In einer stark vom Menschen geprägten Natur kommt Wildnis eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Auch in der Schweiz ist der Druck auf Wildnis gross: Insbesondere Infrastruktur für Tourismus und Energiegewinnung gefährdet die letzten unberührten Gebiete. Gleichzeitig entwickeln sich aufgrund der Landnutzungsaufgabe gewisse Täler hin Richtung Wildnis. Vor diesem Hintergrund zeigt die vorliegende Studie auf, wo sich in der Schweiz Flächen mit hoher Wildnisqualität befinden. Zudem untersucht sie Argumente für und gegen Wildnis bei der lokalen Bevölkerung und kantonalen Fachpersonen. Die Studie zeigt, dass rund 17 Prozent der Schweizer Landesfläche eine hohe Wildnisqualität bewahrt haben, weil sie naturnah, abgelegen, kaum erschlossen und wenig genutzt sind sowie meist in steilem Gelände liegen. Es wird auch deutlich, dass die lokale Bevölkerung oft keinen Widerspruch zwischen Wildnis und freier Naturentwicklung sowie der Nutzung natürlicher Ressourcen sieht. Wildnis hat vor allem dort eine Chance,...

Fifteen years ago, Bronx-born plumber Tommy Rosa died in a hit-and-run incident. Lying by the road, he felt a tug whisking him off into a tunnel of light to meet his divine teacher in heaven. After several weeks in a coma, Tommy returned to earth to walk again with a heightened sense of connection to one and all.Around the same time, Dr. Stephen Sinatra, an integrative cardiologist, was dismantling the prevailing ideas of preventive pharmacology with his holistic approach to treatment. In their first encounter, Tommy got the intuitive message that Dr. Sinatra had an infection in his hip. Tommy's insight confirmed Dr. Sinatra's own suspicion. When Tommy shared with Dr. Sinatra the divine revelations of healing that he had learned, Dr. Sinatra was shocked--the keys to solving the imbalance of energy that he had identified as the cause of most chronic illnesses were the same as those Tommy was relating.From this intersection of the divine and the scientific, Tommy Rosa and Dr. Si...
