More and more people are beginning to realize that the survival of our planet depends on our sense of belonging — to all other humans, to dolphins caught in the dragnets, to chickens and pigs and calves raised in animal concentration camps, to redwoods and rainforests, to keep beds in our oceans, and to the ozone layer. More and more people are becoming aware that every act that affirms this belonging is a moral act of worship, the fulfillment of a precept written in every human heart.
