Volume Two: The Bodhisattva Path of Wisdom and Compassion" - +~ +If we unbalance nature, humankind will suffer. Furthermore, we must consider +future generations: a clean environment is a human right like any other. It +is therefore part of our responsibility toward others to ensure that the world +we pass on is as healthy as, if not healthier than, we found it. This is not +quite such a difficult proposition as it might sound. For although there is a +limit to what we as individuals can do, there is no limit to what a universal +response might achieve. It is up to us as individuals to do what we can, +however little that may be. Just because switching off the light on leaving +the room seems inconsequential, it does not mean we shouldn't do it. + -- His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama, from "The Pocket Dalai Lama"
