Text - 1B

"Trees are living appearances, signs - often ancient - of stories and memories…
…We are used to being extremely individualist, until a problem is not part of our existence we do not face it at all. Yet human life is a continuous interaction between living beings…
…This is what we know: the earth does not belong to men, men belong to the earth. All things are connected like the blood which links one family. It was not man who weaved the web of life, he is only a thread of it. Whatever he does to the web, he does it to himself…
…Only when the last river is drained, the last tree is felled, the last animal is killed, only then will we realize that money can not be eaten.”
