NATURE DOESN’T NEED A SEAT AT THE TABLE
Nature doesn’t need an army of lawyers.
Nature is the law.
Nature doesn’t ask for protection.
Nature demands respect.
Nature doesn’t need a seat at the table.
Nature is the table.
– Irene Tobis and Michael Tobis (2007)
Nature is the one who knocks.
Nature is the air the negotiators at the table need to breathe to conduct their negotiations. And the brains and bodies with which they are negotiating.
