  1. We're all in it together. Everything is connected to everything else. You can't do just one thing. <Law of Inter-relatedness>
  2. The Earth and its resources are finite. or You can't get something for nothing. <Law of Conservation of Energy>
  3. As energy and other resources are used, there is an overall decrease in the amount of usefulness. (Second Law of Thermodynamics>
  4. Everything must go somewhere-there is now away. <Law of Conservation of Matter>
  5. Up to a point, the bigger the better; beyond that point, the bigger the worse. or To everything there is an optimum size. <Brontosaurus Principle>
  6. Everything is becoming something else. <Law of Continuous Creation>
  7. In most cases, the greater the diversity of a system, the greater its stability. <The Diversity Principle>
  8. Nature frequently but not always "knows" best. Note: People use antibiotics to counter nature. <Nature knows best>
  9. We shape our buildings <environment> and afterwards our buildings <environment> shape us. - Winston Churchill <Your Environment is You>
  10. As human beings, one of our inalienable rights is the right to live in a clean environment. <The Environmental Bill of Rights>

  13. All persons are created with an equal right to live in dignity and peace and to work out a meaningful existence. Everyone is entitled to a fair share of the world's resources-provided one is carrying one's own share of the responsibilities for maintaining an orderly world. <The Law of Equity>
  14. Comfortable living, in harmony with nature, should be each society's goal. <the Goal of Society>
