LETTER FROM THE ENVIRONMENT

The Protection of the environment is a matter of "Global Security"

More important than the nuclear issue that plagues the world, from Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Nuclear weapons can be destroyed, the environment can not be destroyed and not recycled.

The protection of the environment is above ideologies, party politics, the theologies, philosophical doctrines, ideologies right or left.

The Environmental Defense is a global security issue that threatens all the Oceans, Continetes, Forestry, all kinds, all forms of planetary life, built over millions of years of natural evolution.
