Protecting our land, our air and our water is a very important thing that we can only do together.

I can't think of anything more important than the environment we leave to our children and our children's children.

The most important thing is to preserve the world we live in. Unless people understand and learn about our world, habitats, and animals, they won't understand that if we don't protect those habitats, we'll eventually destroy ourselves.

The most important environmental issue is one that is rarely mentioned, and that is the lack of a conservation ethic in our culture.

Food is as important as energy, as security, as the environment. Everything is linked together.

Sadly, in the name of progress, we have polluted the air, water, soil and the food we eat.

Well I think on a simple ecological level that the diversity of this planet is important for our survival, that all of our different cultures, people are important to the health of the whole the same way that a species of animal should be saved and at a simple ecology level.

Food and the way we grow it and produce it are a major cause of environmental degradation.

If we pollute the air, water and soil that keep us alive and well, and destroy the biodiversity that allows natural systems to function, no amount of money will save us.

This is a truth that should be repeated like a mantra: to have any chance of a ful - filling life, we require not only clean air and a steady climate, but also an abundance of meadows and woodlands, rivers and oceans, teeming with life and the mass existence of other living creatures.
