The ancestors of the original inhabitants of this continent probably crossed over from present-day Siberia during an Ice Age. As the centuries passed, tribes from the north of America moved further south. Civilisations such as those of the Incas, Quechua and the Moche have emerged on this continent.
The South American continent is home to by far the greatest biodiversity on earth. It is a place of unprecedented wealth of birds, insects, amphibians and thousands of plant species that sustain the global ecosystem. A significant proportion of our food comes from this continent (tomatoes, potatoes, corn, cocoa, etc.).
One of the most important values passed on by the original inhabitants of this continent is the sacred relationship with nature. From generation to generation, they pass on the notion that nature is a sanctuary and a mother figure that man should treat with awe and affection. The global protest against the further degradation of the Earth is largely inspired by this naturist wisdom of South America.
Earth is our mother.
If I honor Life, I’m honoring myself.
