Welcome to your insight!
Gaia is an ancient term for our mother the earth. Some believe that the earth itself is a living organism. That we (all living things) are cells within that organism. And even the rocks and rivers are part of the one organism. This is the core of the modern Gaian belief, held by many in the sciences, especially the life sciences.
The components of the earth, air, water must always be in a dynamic balance. When any element gets out of balance, all are affected. Just as a disease of one organ affects the function of the whole body. This also applies when speaking of social classes and cultures. Social justice must be in balance between classes for cultures to survive.
As the world's climate scientists and energy analysts warn us, unless we rapidly transfer billions of dollars from the military budget and other
corporate welfare programs, and implement a far-reaching global program to
eliminate poverty, reduce greenhouse gases, and convert the U.S. and global
economy to renewable energy and sustainable production, civilization, as we
know it today, may not survive more than a few more decades.

We who understand this must stand together to protect our mother from the forces of greed and stupidity.
