He argues that to ensure a stable and prosperous future, we must act in concert to protect the environment and plan for the future.- Humans need to recognize the global responsibility of preserving the environment. With human activities leading to changes in air quality, climate change and mass extinction; we must combine our efforts in order to ensure an effective response.

We should broaden our outlook regarding views on conservation, biodiversity, wildlife, land combatations, reprocessing of waste products, etc. It is essential to understand the importance of conserving natural resources as it is necessary for socio-economic development and vital for humanity’s long term survival.
- Learning best practices from others can be beneficial for raising awareness of global responsibility to preserve the environment. Educating ourselves through seminars, projects and campaigns can help greatly in further understanding the environment statement.
