Linking everyday consumerism to grave environmental concerns

Vision

Our core vision is to reconnect individuals to the ecological networks of which they are part and develop positive and attractive alternatives to consumerism. We believe that a sustainable future can be achieved by promoting sustainable solutions, advocating new concepts of wealth and prosperity and rethinking habits into action through leadership, education and changed lifestyles.
