Rights Quotes

Order Quotes
The system of technological production that we have today has been justified in terms of creating more goods to feed more people and to meet more needs. But it actually destroys more of the resources that we need in order to meet those multiple needs. If we shift to an ecological perception, a diversity perception, we realize that some of the instruments of which we are very proud are actually extremely primitive for dealing with nature. To me that is the great lesson of ecological awareness at the turn of the millennium.

Rights Quotes

Luxury Quotes
The primary threat to nature and people today comes from centralising and monopolising power and control.

Cultivating and conserving diversity is no luxury in our times: it is a survival imperative.
