Human culture, activity and artefacts must never compromise the earth's ecological systems and they should where ever possible regenerate and protect living systems.

Clearcutting analysis of 'sustainability' semantics. I use the word 'resilience' instead. A word that still implies some sense of ... confrontation, or avoidance. Eco-mutuality goes far beyond. Can we learn from ou long-forgotten ancestors who lived in the periods we, patronizing, tend to call 'pre-history'? Periods that amount to a stretch of tim, several tenths- to a hundredfold of the measurable period we like to call 'civilization' of written history? What traces are stil left in Homo's genome, in our deeper sense of belonging to Earth? Where is our reality of trusting on and listening to soils, waters and trees, instead of reaching to skies, stars and antennas?
