WE WILL DEFEND AND PROTECT THE RAIN FORESTS, REDWOODS, AND OTHER SACRED PLACES... WE WILL BECOME STEWARDS FOR THE PLANET'S THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES...

SO THAT PEACE MAY PREVAIL ON EARTH! MAY PEACE PREVAIL ON EARTH! (This is our prayer. At ceremonies, repeat this line to each of the four directions.) Personal Commitment I, the undersigned, aware that human activities are seriously endangering the fragile ecosystems of our planet, aware of the widening gap between the haves and the have-nots, aware of the need to direct my energies to protect and restore the global Web of Life, Decide to begin right now to strenghten my ways and values, and change whatever still needs to be changed in myself and around me. I want the year 2000 - a symbol for a New Beginning - to be the turning point in the local and global efforts now underway to create a better world based on equality, justice and a sustainable planet -- a world in which Peace on Earth prevails. Understanding that we are all individually responsible for the kind of future we will create for our children and for countless generations to come, I will participate in initiatives, locally and globally, to transform our world and protect this Jewel of Life we call Earth. I agree with this Earth Proclamation and the goals of the Great Millenium Peace Caravan and personally commit myself to do all that I can to spread it throughout the world and help make our shared dream of Peace, Love and Harmony on Earth come true.
