The Earth Charter is an international declaration of fundamental values and principles for building a just, sustainable, and peaceful global society in the 21st century. It "seeks to inspire in all peoples a sense of global interdependence and shared responsibility for the well-being of the human family, the greater community of life, and future generations.  The four pillars and sixteen principles of the Earth Charter are:  I. Respect and Care for the Community of Life  1. Respect Earth and life in all its diversity.  2. Care for the community of life with understanding, compassion and love.  3. Build democratic societies that are just, participatory, sustainable and peaceful.  4.
