The idea of a constructive cycle between human well-being and that of the planet—integral ecology—is beginning to be applied by politics in major international agreements. Now it must become part of our lives, of our daily routines, because without each of us, everything is lost. The ecosystem does not respond to treaties, laws, or interest rates; it responds to the concrete behaviors of each one of us. We, ordinary people, are the solution. And if we decide to commit ourselves, we have everything to gain.
