"Our Earth.
Beautiful, full of life and indispensable. A system that is home to plants, animals and people. Its soil, its water, its air vitalizes. Its resources can sustain all living things. But its bounty has been abused. We have upset its fragile balance. We take from it more than it can replace on its own. We must change that!"
