The graph of the iceberg shows my message to the people gathering at the Copenhagen.
A sentence /slogan to be added -
“It’s Nobody’s Fault, let’s move forward together. — it is a different way of thinking which will lead us to creating a possibility different from future”
以下这张图利用漂浮在海面的冰山简洁地表达我们在哥本哈根会议上的立场。我们相信，换个方式思考会为气候变化问题另辟蹊径。
For the bottom layer of the ice-berg, i wish to add “Nature and human beings are seperated” before “Happiness is external to me”
Would love to make this into a postcard with climate chance logo as stemp, COP 15 logo as Chop. And we can start a postcard campaign! Or ask jessica suggests - send the idea to 350.org
Any suggestions?
This idea is based on my point of view which is that:
- I see climate change as a symptom of an outward materialistic view of life where everything “external” can be valued and balanced, which as I discovered later, naturally causes pain and suffering, because no matter what I have or achieved now, things in the future or of others’ are always better. The ego will always compare. The journey of advocating for climate change had somehow led me to a point when I could feel and experience reality directly, as part of the interconnected whole, when every second becomes moment of eternal happiness. In Chinese philosopher, Dao’s word, it is a state of oneness with heaven and man. (天人合一). There is nothing wrong gaining pleasure from material objects, it is just limiting, and I believe in a possibility of collective evolution of human consciousness at this time in history.
