Imagine and Create Sustainable Lifestyles

Common sense and scientific studies tell us that our current lifestyles will not sustain
human life on the earth forever. We need to be multicultural leaders and followers to
work – together when possible – to imagine and create sustainable lifestyles. We want to
live in ways that will help make planet earth a healthy place for humans and other life.

lenses of others.
