Overconsumption Uprooted



A quote shared by the Women's Earth Alliance:

“Feeling uprooted and disconnected can cause a desire to conquer or dominate others to establish self-worth and a sense of belonging. This includes attempting to dominate the physical world by over-consuming material goods when we lose a meaningful and fulfilling kinship with Earth and each other.”

– Osprey Oreille Lake, Uprisings for the Earth

A quote worth thinking about

“In the end we will conserve only what we love; We will love only what we understand; And we will understand only what we are taught.”

-Baba Dioum, 1968
