When leaders make a decision, they need to address problems at their root cause rather than treat just the symptoms. Things are not as simple as saying "reduce, reuse, and recycle" or adding more renewable energy resources. Climate change, our econom...

Compassion for nature and plants is a vital part of both our lives and nature’s survival. Our task is not only to preserve the environment – but to restore it. The choices we make today will shape a better future for ourselves and for generations...

My relationship with indigenous ancestry is through connection in dreams. Through dreams I feel the energy of Mother Earth. When I observe nature, it brings me signs of rhythm, gives me firmness with the pecking of the woodpecker, transmits to me lon...

Today, Earth is as fragile as a balloon – yet the world treats it far too harshly....

The Charlton’s Apollo butterfly is a ‘living fossil’ – an endemic relict high-mountain species found in the Global warming is causing glaciers to melt and altering microclimates in specific locations. Human activities such as deforestation, o...

Remember that humans and nature are connected. If you make a decision against nature, you’re doing something against yourself too....

The challenge before us today is to begin to think about sustainability through the lens of environmental health. The environment is a primary concern, not an afterthought. No human technology can fully replace “nature’s technology,” perfected...

In the stillness of nature I have learned to listen to my inner voice, to follow my intuition and to explore new paths. I have learned that I need sun, water, clean air and that, in a way, I am like a tree: my passage through life must produce sh...

Natural disasters are a stark reminder of how fragile our connection with nature truly is. The melting of glaciers in the mountains of Central Asia deprives us of water, while hurricanes sweep away entire villages. But is nature taking revenge? No. I...

Resilience. Nature shows us the ability to recover after being damaged or destroyed. We always see how it strives to survive: the small plants and flowers that emerge after devastating floods, the forests that regrow after fires, the trees that lift...

Southeast Asia has a lot of archipelagic areas that will sink in the future. From this point, don't just think about the big cities and harbours but also lands and places for native people. Many people will be displaced from home without knowing what...
