HEALTHY PLANET

Steps for the Healing

The Earth is a vital planet on which life pervades all domains – the seas, the atmosphere, the forests, the soil. The human being is a natural element in the super-organism Earth, the most astonishing planet in our galaxy.

It is high time for our species to become aware of its own power and lack of wisdom. We still have time – but only a few years – to turn this ship around and to begin the healing of the planetary wounds.

To end the big destruction…

Just imagine how much easier it would be to protect what we love and what supports life if it were a crime to destroy ecosystems. It would make all the difference. And this essential law is already visible on the horizon.
