diversity", "the right to clean water", especially "We have a
responsibility to live in harmony with other species.", "our vision for
a just, environmentally-oriented society", "quality of life for all",
"reduction of consumption", "opposition of bioengineering", "vision &
principles", “We come from & make common cause
with all of those involved in the grassroots movements for the
protection of the environment & all species, peace, safe energy,
sustainable communities, international solidarity & democracy, & rights
for all peoples & groups;”, “ECOLOGICAL RESPONSIBILITY - We are
