 | | The values and objectives of The Earth Charter focus on how "it is imperative that we, the peoples of the Earth, declare our responsibility to one another, to the greater community of life, and to future generations. |
 | | The Earth Charter embraces the view that the problems of poverty, environmental degradation, ethnic and religious conflict, and social injustice are all interdependent, thus policies that address one problem can impact and improve other issues. |
 | | The Earth Charter is a unique international document in its scope and ability to lead the global society in addressing the problems that impede sustainable development, human rights and peace." |
