ABSTRACT
The Earth continues to be treated with little thought for the future. More and more species are going extinct. Wetlands are disappearing at a rapid rate, endangering the migration routes of birds. Even our closest primate relatives are finding less and less of their habitat left standing to ensure their survival. The story goes on. There is little concrete strategic policy that incorporates the development of a sustainable Earth system as a practical objective. Yet, that is exactly what we must establish. Without a conscious exercise dedicated to the objective of ensuring the sustainability of the world’s ecological systems, our days on this planet are numbered.
