White text on stylized background reminiscent of forests in brown and green reads: “I used to think the top environmental problems were biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse & climate change. I though that with 30 years of science we could address those problems. But I was wrong. The top environmental problems are selfishness, greed and apathy… and to deal with those we need a spiritual & cultural transformation - and we scientists don't know how to do that.” - Gus Speth Bottom of image reads "Live Learn Evolve". (Origins unknown.)
We have to Think a new way; Be a new way; Interact a new way. We have to let all this horrible crack our shells of complacency and arrogance, along with our addiction to the #SeductionOfEase . If we don't we don't take just humans down with us.
