We are at a crucial point in our history. What each
of us humans do from now on will impact the future of planet Earth. We Homo "sapiens"
are the ones endangering the Biosphere, the thin layer that separates us from
the vastness of the inhospitable outer space.
Atom by atom added together have resulted in each of us, human or nonhuman. Big things are made up of small things. Therefore, each of our decisions counts for the fate of the Earth.
Other non-humans from the lowly bacteria and algae to whales and sequoias are already working towards the maintenance of the Biosphere, for they are the cogs of a complicated mechanism that sustains life on this planet. They teach us how to do it.
Now it's our turn. We already know enough to get to work for the good of everyone on Earth. It's time to get down to work.
We must put aside our grudges and selfishness and look together into infinity without ever losing sight of the ground, always aware that the thread of life of every one of us is not in our hands but in those of their neighbours. If our neighbour is well, so will we. One is all and all is one.
Therefore, we must think globally and act locally. The clock does not stop. It continues ticking away. Meanwhile where have you been? What have you done? What you did, does it add or subtract to the whole?
We leave you with a video to make reflection:

Estamos en un punto crucial de nuestra historia. Lo que cada uno de nosotros los humanos hagamos de hoy en adelante impactará en el futuro del planeta Tierra. Somos nosotros los Homo "sapiens" los que estamos poniendo en peligro la Biosfera, esa fina capa que nos separa de la inmensidad inhóspita del espacio exterior.
Atomo a átomo sumados en conjunto han dado origen a cada uno de nosotros, humano o no humano. Lo grande está hecho de lo pequeño. Por lo tanto, cada una de nuestras decisiones cuentan para el destino de la Tierra.
Los demás seres no humanos desde la humilde bacteria y alga hasta la ballena y sequoya ya colaboran lo suyo, ya son dientes de un complicado mecanismo que mantienen la vida sobre el planeta. Ellos nos enseñan cómo hay que hacerlo.
Ahora
es nuestro turno. Ya sabemos lo suficiente como para ponernos a
trabajar por el bien de todos en la Tierra. Ha llegado la hora de
ponernos manos a la obra.
Debemos dejar de lado nuestras rencillas y egoísmos y mirar juntos hacia el infinito sin jamás perder de vista el suelo, siempre conscientes de que el hilo de la vida de cada uno de nosotros no está en nuestras manos sino en aquellas del vecino. Si nuestro vecino está bien, también lo estaremos nosotros. Uno somos todos y todos somos uno.
Por lo tanto, debemos pensar globalmente y obrar localmente. El reloj del tiempo no para. Sigue su marcha. Mientras tanto ¿dónde has estado? ¿Qué has hecho? Lo que has hecho, ¿le añade al todo o le resta?
