Environmentalism is a hot-button issue, but one that encompasses more than the reduction of green house gas emissions or land-fill mass. The “environment” encompasses all living things–humans, animals, and plant and water eco-systems. We don’t just want to help the Earth, we want to help the world. All life is inter-connected, so one cannot talk about saving the environment without touching on human rights. One cannot talk about the rights of humans without thinking about the rights of animals. We would like to expand thinking on the term “the environment”–we call this “environmental holism”. The capacity to do some green is in all of us.
