Pierre Teilhard de Chardin Quotes

The planet isn't going anywhere. We are.

My object is to save the world, while still leading a pleasant life.

We all begin to do what we can do, just like we're doing now, to clean up the planet and to find solutions rather than fight. It just happens everywhere.

If we are to survive on this planet, there must be compromises.

Shouldn't every day be Earth Day? I mean, what are our options?

Saving the world happens one person at a time. Be at the front of the queue. Each one of us has to work hard to achieve our collective dream for a healthier planet.

I don't know how you can live on the planet and not care about the environment. It's our globe, we share it.

One Earth, one mother - one does not sell the Earth.

I don’t know how to save the world. I don’t have the answers or The Answer. I hold no secret knowledge as to how to fix the mistakes of generations past and present. I only know that without compassion and respect for all of Earth’s inhabitants, none of us will survive—nor will we deserve to.

Locally and globally, we need to be doing everything we can to help Mother Earth.

My principles are simple. Protect the Earth. Serve the People, and Explore the Universe

There must be limits, somewhere, to the human footprint on this earth. When the whole of the world is reduced to nothing but human product, we will have lost the map that can show us how we got here, and can offer our spirits an answer when we ask why. Surely we are capable of declaring sacred some quarters that we dare not enter or possess.

Sure we fit. We wouldn't be here if we didn't. But the world wasn't made for us and it will endure without us.

For us, every day is Earth Day. It's like with Women's Day recently, I said, "Every day is women's day - we're women!" It's something that we sort of take for granted.

If we recognize the interconnectedness of the changes our planet needs, we become true solutionaries and our united power is unparalleled.

I think the environment is possibly our most worrying thing at the moment, so I think mountaintops are the place to live.

Some may wonder why I chose wildflowers when there are hunger and unemployment and the big bomb in the world. Well, I, for one, think we will survive, and I hope that along the way we can keep alive our experience with the flowering earth. For the bounty of nature is also one of the deep needs of man.

We only get one planet.

Planet Earth is our shared island, let us join forces to protect it

We've been given this gift, our planet, and we've found no other place in the universe that we can inhabit. I want to do something to create radical change to help save it. It's our responsibility.

We are all environmentalists now, but we are not all planetists. An environmentalist realizes that nature has its pleasures and deserves respect. A planetist puts the earth ahead of the earthlings.

I think the world is going to be saved by millions of small things.

Anything else you're interested in is not going to happen if you can't breathe the air and drink the water. Don't sit this one out. Do something. You are by accident of fate alive at an absolutely critical moment in the history of our planet.

Faced with a choice between the survival of the planet and a new set of matching tableware, most people would choose the tableware.

It's all connected. When you save any part of the world, you've saved the whole world. In fact, that's the only way it can be done.
