Sustainability

Sustainability …. What do you believe it is important to sustain and why?

Elisabet Sahtouris.

“Recognizing our responsibility and opportunity for creating our reality is the only way I see for making the shift from fear to love – from a world of scarcity and greed to one of abundance in which all people are empowered to fulfil their needs in sustainable ways. To achieve this, we must break through long cultural conditioning on our lack of power, our willingness to accept, and thus co-create economic and political inequities that disempower people, currency systems that promote these inequities any anything else preventing the full expression of human potential in sustainable ways.”
