We live in a time where making the same choices as we did in the past is no longer possible. It seems like maybe these choices don’t even make sense anymore. We no longer belong to the era of OR We have entered the era of AND. An era where we no longer choose what is good for me OR good for the world. It is only good for me IF it is good for the world as well.

Interdependence is no longer a distant and conceptual theory. Humans have lived, felt, and learned this in practice. And continues to learn in the present day

The moment calls for urgency: it is time to gather theses learnings and transform the world into the place we have dreamt to live in. And this world that we dream to live in can only become a reality if we remind ourselves that humanity and nature are not separate.

Everything is nature.

The equation shouldn’t be man versus nature, but man AND nature. This is the power of AND. When interests are combined, there are no conflicts. When the urban man respectfully connects and learns with traditional populations with ancestral knowledge, the magic happens.

We see that it is possible to unite development AND sustainability. That it is possible to unite innovation AND fair trade.

WE ARE ALL ONE WITH NATURE.
