INFORMATION FOR THE NEXT LEVEL OF SUCCESS

This single word describes so many critical paths, initiatives, world shifts, and required changes to protect both our planet, ourselves, and one another. Sustainability has become a buzz word amongst western civilization – it has become a goal to adopt a more sustainable lifestyle. When in fact there is much of the world that a sustainable lifestyle is the only option for survival. To live off the land and to innovate with nature, not against it. We are all interconnected, as people to one another and as people to the earth. Chief Seattle, in 1854, wrote: Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect. We are amidst surviving one of the greatest tragedies our world has ever seen, proving that our interconnectivity is very real, acting as catalyst to challenge and begin changing how we live to allow us to repair and prolong the life of our planet.
