One Earthly Body
One Earth, One MegaBody
CONCEIVING OF OUR
PLANETARY BODY
Metaphors function like scientific models. The more accurate the metaphor, the better it works as a guide for real-world events.
WE NEED A NEW METAPHOR FOR OUR RELATIONSHIP TO THE EARTH
CHANGE THE METAPHOR
CHANGE THE WORLD
From Mother Earth to Spaceship Earth the metaphors we use shape how we think and act toward the Earth. The time has come to see the Earth more accurately-as our larger body that provides the means for our personal bodies to exist and thrive. This idea could change everything.

THE ONE EARTHLY BODY PROJECT
The idea behind One Earthly Body is that our planet is a complex interdependent system like our own bodies. Using the idea that the planet is like a living body as a metaphor is like using a better scientific model-it leads to better personal and policy decisions
