What do we mean by living in harmony with the earth? Does it mean that you never kill, that you live in a log cabin, that you don’t reproduce, that you own nothing? Of course it doesn’t. In practice, what it means is that each of us keeps trying (in our own ways and at our own pace) to lessen our impact upon the earth and its life.
