“Only the religious forces of the world with their sense of the sacred can evoke the psychic energies needed to transform a declining Cenozoic Era into the emerging Ecozoic Era…To initiate and guide this next creative moment of the great story of the Earth is the Great Work of the religions of the world as we move into the future.”
-
“In the face of excessive greed, capitalism, materialism, and wanton exploitation of the earth, forests, the oceans, animals, and other creatures of nature in contemporary times, and in the face of man’s inhumanity to man on the dying planet, we should ask ourselves… “Isn’t it time we made a new covenant?”
-
“The Earth has enough for everyone’s needs but not for some people’s greed. My ethics do not permit me to claim but require me to own kinship with not merely the ape, but the horse and the sheep, the lion and the leopard, the snake, and the scorpion.”
