Where it all begins
In an effort to state the common root of today's multicultural and environmental issues as being grounded in the nature of human conditioning, I propose the following thesis —
"… the root cause of the environmental and cultural crisis we face today as being in the condition of humans, in how we think and relate to the world around ourselves."
