STATEMENT
B.
"Oh, what a catastrophe,
what a maiming of love when it was made personal, merely personal
feeling. This is what is the matter with us: we are bleeding
at the roots because we are cut off from the earth and sun and
stars. Love has become a grinning mockery because, poor blossom,
we plucked it from its stem on the Tree of Life and expected
it to keep on blooming in our civilized vase on the table."

STATEMENT
C.
"Scientific research is
based on the idea that everything that takes place is determined
by laws of nature, and therefore this holds for the action of
people....Our task must be to free ourselves from (our) prison
by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures
and the whole of nature in its beauty."

STATEMENT
D.
"The human need for nature
is linked not just to the material exploitation of the environment
but also to the influence of the natural world on our emotional,
cognitive, aesthetic, and even spiritual development."
............................- Edward O. Wilson, Harvard Pulitzer Prize recipient

STATEMENT
E.
"Our education, psychology,
social work and healing methods are flawed in that they ignore
our inherent connection to, and love of, nature. Since our lives
function as a part of nature, its perfection and renewing powers,
learning how to connect nature to our thinking and relationships
is critical. The connection reduces the destructive stress resulting
from our nature-separation and it strengthens human and environmental
wellness."

Distinguished
