    Nowadays news travel at an incredible speed and there is bad news everywhere because, yes, we are not taking care of the planet and our health as we should. What we know for sure is that humans are one of the main driving forces of environmental and health crises. Luckily, it’s not the situation we live in that defines us; it’s how we choose to deal with every situation. We can turn a blind eye and cover the sun with one finger, missing our opportunity to be the guardians for tomorrow. Or we can strive to leave a positive legacy for future generations recognizing we are in debt to future generations. It might not be “easy”, but it is very “simple”: it’s all about ensuring that our actions today don't compromise future generations’ well-being or the resources they will need to thrive. Together, choosing wisely, we can accomplish great things for the benefit of people, future generations, and the planet. Let Sir. David Attenborough’s words be clear and loud: “There has been no species remotely clever as homo sapiens, let us live up to that name”.

  • Nature, Your Partner for Long-Term Wellbeing
    2023/07/05
    Development, poor urban planning, and the disappearance of green and open spaces for sports and leisure have also diminished our contact with nature. We have never been so in need of a healthy planet to ensure our own well-being and prosperity. Of course, all-natural elements affect us… so the most important question we should be asking ourselves is how does our environment affect us? Spending time outdoors makes us more mindful of what we see, what we hear, what we smell, and how we feel, and can increase our problem-solving skills and improve our creative capabilities. Science is demonstrating that green and natural environments are a fundamental pathway to human health. Our highest goal should be to incorporate the connection between nature and human health and well-being into policy and practice. We can develop better health and sustainability policies by listening to people and community voices, understanding their perspectives on health and well-being, and inviting their participation in designing their own road map to achieve a healthier lifestyle. Remember that you have a choice: you can do nothing and let things the way they are, or you can strive for a better world. How would you like to see yourself in the future?

  • The Rights of Nature
    2023/06/28
    The Rights of Nature is an intriguing idea that invites us to rethink our relationship with nature. We often talk about the importance of protecting the environment, but recognizing the rights of nature takes it to a whole new level. It's about acknowledging that nature has intrinsic value and deserves legal protection, just like any individual or community. Its goal is to balance benefits for human beings, ecosystems, and the planet as a whole. When an ecosystem is declared a “subject of rights,” it has the right to be legally represented by a guardian who will act on its behalf and in its best interest. This guardian is typically an individual or a group of individuals that understand, care for, and manage the said ecosystem. There are some challenges regarding the implementation of the rights of nature, but there is also a growing worldwide recognition of nature's rights. To overcome these challenges, we will need innovative legal and political thinking, interdisciplinary collaboration, and global cooperation and coordination. But you should know and understand that you have a choice and a voice to claim nature’s rights… you just need to be aware of the problem and willing to be part of the solution… Just imagine being remembered by your grandchildren as one of the leaders that composed the “Universal Declaration for the Rights of Nature”.
