Human well-being, in all it's many dimensions, and ecological integrity (health) intrinsically intertwine. This blog seeks to advocate for the preservation and enhancement of all life on Earth (Gaia). Life is precious and tenuous. We must cherish it in ourselves, in others, and in the natural world. Whatever happens to one; happens ultimately to all. "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." - Albert Einstein
