GAIA Mission
Statement:
Adopted December 2000 in Johannesburg,
South Africa
GAIA is a worldwide alliance of non-profit
organizations and individuals who recognize that our planet's
finite resources, fragile biosphere and the health of people
and other living beings are endangered by polluting and inefficient
production practices and health-threatening disposal methods.
We oppose incinerators,
landfills, and other end-of-pipe interventions.
Our ultimate vision
is a just, toxic-free world without incineration. Our goal
is the implementation of clean production, and the creation
of a closed-loop, materials-efficient economy where all products
are reused, repaired or recycled back into the marketplace
or nature. |
