Our cosmic mother is dying a slow unnecessary death. for her and all sentint beings the tears flow. We are stewards of our cosmic home and the blessings she offers.  Yet, entrusted wih her care, we've chosen to be parasites. Our oceans are dumping grounds for waste galore, our forests ablaze in flames with global warming run rampant. Deforestation and desertification on the march towards famine, untold sufferig and death awaits, somewhere just around the coner. Busy with blind self interest, power, and greed, there seems to be no time to do the right things. Saving Mother Earth will be work, heavy sacrifices to be made, benefits of actions taken determined by effort applied. LEC

  This blue planet of ours is a beautiful habitat. Its life is our life; its future our future. Indeed, the earth is acts like a mother to us all. Like children, we are dependent on her. Our world is deeply interdependent, both in terms our economies and the problkems like climate change that challenge us all. When we see photographs of the earth from space, we see no boundaries between us, just this beautiful blue planet. This is no longer a time to think only of "my nation" or "my continent" alone. There is a real need for a greater sense of global responsibility based on the oneness of humanity.

  We have to learn that we are all brothers and sisters and live on one earth and under the same sun. Unless we all work together, no solution can be found. Therefore, our key responsibility is to commit ourselves to the ethical principals of universal responsibility beyond profit and religion, and to place the well being-being of all sentient beings and future generation above our own egoism.
