A Giant Leap for Humankind By Ed Aurelio C. Reyes Chair-Emeritus (one of two), and secretary-general, World Environment Day-Philippines Network. This poem/prayer was written in October 1999; translated into Bengali, Danish, Filipino, German,French, Japanese, and Swedish, before Earth Day (April) 2000. By now the translations number about 20. A multi-nationality solemn ceremony, called “Handshakes and Hugs for Earth Synergy,” was created along with the poem and centered on the sharing of personal responses to it and a chorused recitation of It. Versions of this cere-mony have been held in at least six countries during Earth Day 2000, and in more and more places during commemorations of Earth Day (April 22) and World Environment Day (June 5) all these past years
For Earth Synergy
nations of the world come together as one,
and elements of our living planet Gaia,
environmental destruction, rescue and heal, conserve and exalt,
our Mother Earth. This page of the Lambat-Liwanag On-Line Library is supported by:
