« We live in a fundamentally interdependent world. Both our well-being and our ill-being are built with others, through others. » – Matthieu Ricard
The beauty of our world and the beauty of life in all its forms encourage us to keep our eyes open to inequality and climate change. They can also suggest a motivation to act towards a more altruistic world.
La World Earth Day reminds us of our commitment: inspired by the beauty of all beings and nature, wonder motivates our action.
