How to promote peace while taking care of the planet

Everything is interconnected with infinite lines, which is why we believe that the connection between peace and the sustainability of the Earth is crucial. We will talk to very different people who have one thing in common: they propose themselves as an essential goal and have a positive impact on this planet. We will talk about sustainability, but we will use the magnifying glass of world peace to do so, remembering that we cannot ignore the well-being of the Earth and vice versa.
