“The water we drink, like the air we breathe, is not a part of our body but is our body. What we do to one- to the body, to the water-we do to the other.

“Fifty percent of Panga’s single continent was designated for human use; the rest was left to nature, and the ocean was barely touched at all. It was a crazy split, if you thought about it: half the land for a single species, half for the hundreds of thousands of others. But then, humans had a knack for throwing things out of balance. Finding a limit they’d stick to was victory enough.”
― Becky Chambers, A Psalm for the Wild-Built
