"The ancient peoples everywhere understood the importance of Nature. The Chinese called the way of the universe The Tao, and the Greeks called her Gaia, or Mother Earth, the bountiful one, full of unconditional love. And it's not just our ancestors. Several people even today vouch for this interrelationship between all things in our universe. In 1970, two scientists, James Lovelock and Lynn Margulis, put forward the Gaia Theory, which states that this entire planet is one living organism. " - Grandpa Yogesh
