I had an idea of adding the Rights of Nature to the Constitution of the United States. I thought by doing so children in school would be taught to respect and care for Nature, that corporations would be forced to clean up their act. My thought (my dream) went further into thinking that this one act would have such far reaching effects, protecting the animals, the water, the soil, the trees , the air; wouldn't this decrease illness, poverty, and starvation? Wouldn't this one act improve psychological health? Can you just imagine people living in harmony with Nature, I believe in Natures healing power and so many suffering now from addictions, psychological, and physical illness could actualy recover. Just to breath the fresh air, if only to drink of pure water, to sit down and eat chemical free food, yes this is my dream. I welcome all input on my idea. It's a huge task for one person to try and add the Rights of Nature to the Constitution. I'm not really sure how to make it happen. I'm simply one person searching for solutions to global problems.
