The earth is dying, the earth is drying. If we destroy our only home, we destroy ourselves, and we destroy everything. “It’s time to say enough. Enough of brutalizing biodiversity. Enough of killing ourselves with carbon. Enough of treating nature like a toilet. Enough of burning and drilling and mining our way deeper. We are digging our own graves.“ “Antonio Guterres, UN Secretary General” - Speech at COP26 on Glasgow, United Kingdom, 1 NOVEMBER 2021
