About this Quote
This quote by R. Buckminster Fuller is a reminder that we are all responsible for the planet we inhabit. We are all passengers on this spaceship called Earth, and yet no one has been given an instruction manual on how to take care of it. This means that it is up to us to figure out how to live in harmony with the environment and each other. We must learn to use our resources wisely and to take care of the planet for future generations. We must also recognize that we are all connected and that our actions have an impact on the planet and its inhabitants. This quote serves as a reminder that we must take responsibility for our actions and strive to create a better future for all.
