Usually you just use these words: "I give you my, I make this commitment to you, I honor this idea between us." For me, commitment boils down to honor. Because you make a commitment to protect our environment, you make a commitment to species preservation, you make a commitment to stop things like human trafficking. You make a commitment to stop smoking, to eat better. Typically, something that is positive. A positive notion of honor.
Ian SomerhalderIf we recognize the interconnectedness of the changes our planet needs, we become true solutionaries and our united power is unparalleled.
Ian SomerhalderThe coming together of like-minded individuals through action is what's needed to see wide spread change for us, our planet and its creatures.
Ian SomerhalderLooking around the world at these wildlife, it's abundantly clear that humans have benefited from nature in so many ways but have also brought many species to the brink of extinction...The American people that I interact with through my IS Foundation work do not want to allow this to happen; they do not want to let these species go without a fight; and they see the way in which nature provides for people around the world.
Ian SomerhalderWe are the environment. The world is literally one biological process. The trees are our lungs. Look at the Amazon River system next to a human cardiovascular system, look at corals or trees and look at our lungs, you literally cannot tell the difference. Theyโre the same. So when we destroy our environment, weโre effectively destroying ourselves.
