Good Faith To Heal Our Fragile Planet

Our actions can be like far reaching ripples on our global pond
Human beings don’t always realise it, but we are fragile creatures living on a fragile planet.

While the very earth beneath our feet may seem solid, the rock on which it stands is only a relatively thin crust covering a molten centre that occasionally erupts through volcanoes. That seemingly solid crust is itself made of “plates”, which are continually shifting causing earthquakes when they collide.

In recent decades we are becoming more and more aware of how human beings are causing untold damage to the environment that sustains us, not only putting the survival of other animals at risk, but threatening our own survival too. We have learnt how our actions can be like far reaching ripples on our global pond.
