We protect what is ours: MY land, my house, my family, my country, my culture. But when it comes to nature our perspective is external: THE planet, the forest, the ocean, the air, the trees.
This mindset is the crux of our problem. We’ve distanced ourselves from the very thing that sustains us. We protect what we consider “mine” but treat the Earth as something separate, something external, something that’s not our responsibility.
