$1.00
For centuries, humans have seen nature as something we must dominate, conquer, and tame, progressively eroding the natural resilience of ecosystems, with the loss of many species more vulnerable than our own. This is not sustainable. This must change. It is time to restore balance in our human social ecosystems, and in the many other ecological systems that we are interconnected with.
