The Earth does not belong to us: we belong to the Earth.

Summary

We should recognize our responsibility to care for and preserve the environment, rather than exploiting it for our own selfish desires. It calls for a shift in mindset from dominion to stewardship, reminding us that we have a duty to protect and respect the planet that provides us with life.
