Quote of the Month
If the people who profit from biotic impoverishment are given veto power over the future of life on earth, as can be the case in consensus processes and in the hidden operations of government, the public is not well served. Furthermore, we believe that the welfare of our nonhuman kin, usually ignored by the anthropocentric institutions of our society, must be considered when making decisions about how land should be managed. The voiceless must be given a vote.
