Last week, the hashtag #SaveThePlanetIn4Words was trending on Twitter—and the Twitterverse came up with so many wonderful, insightful and often hilarious ideas! It got me thinking: What four words would I choose to save the planet? Here’s what I came up with:

I truly believe this world would be a better place if we all lived with compassion for all beings. Here are 10 more smart tweets that warmed my heart:
1. Because the Arctic is one of the world’s last pristine ecosystems, and because polar bears, walruses and other animals call it home:

2. Because elephants face an uncertain future:

3. Because the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is big enough:

5. Because it’s good for your health, too:

6. Because 750 million people worldwide lack access to it, and because clean water can help to lessen hunger, illiteracy and poverty:

7. Because 8 million animals enter shelters every year:

8. Because we learn by seeking common ground:

9. Because it’s good advice to remember every day:

10. And because cats always make everything better:

What about you? How would you save the planet in four words? Let us know in the comments below.
Thank you Kathleen,
Our world is in dire need for healing
Love
Frans
Thank YOU for all the healing you do for so many, including me 🙂
Open your heart to all.
Okay not 4 words but I can’t count 😉
Embrace the world with your heart (more words)
Your heart is my heart, so lets be compassionate to each other (oops they are getting longer)
All are beautiful Frans 🙂 Yes I think in reality it might take more than 4 😉
I love this. Thanks for sharing.
I guess mine would be “Healing Self Heals World” (That’s Frans- inspired right there.) 😉
Love it!
