I don’t know about you, but sometimes I find those inspirational quotes strategically placed over a picture of a mountain or forest pretty damn cheesy. Am I a cynic? Why yes. Yes I am. But you know what else I am? I’m a dreamer and an optimist.
Especially when it comes to saving our planet. Which is why I wanted to share five sustainability quotes superimposed over images of mountains, forests and a child hugging a very large tree. Cheesy? Perhaps. True? Hell yes.
And, as a bonus, here is my favourite sustainability quote of all time, which I had previously shared in my How To Plant a Tree Sapling post.
My hope in sharing these is to spread the message that not only is saving the planet a worthwhile – and absolutely necessary – course of action, but it’s also completely doable. Let’s take these somewhat cheesy memes and turn them into real world actions. Sound good?

Ah, Homer. All answers to life’s biggest questions can be found through you.
Poignant and thought provoking. Enjoyed each one as always. Why aren’t you famous yet??
Haha! Well I didn’t come up with the quotes nor superimpose them onto the images. I just gathered them up and presented them for your consideration. Not exactly fame-worthy, but I appreciate your praise all the same 🙂
You know which one was my favourite…..could have had something to do with the beautiful pristine lake that was below the beautiful pristine mountains…..which needs to be kept pristine…Hmmm…I may have said pristine too many times…but that’s the point isn’t it…keep it pristine people
Pretty sure you can’t say pristine too many times when talking about the mountains. Pristine… Pristine… Pristine! Nope. It’s all good 😉
