A CALL TO
REFLECTION

Time to act

A word from the author

I’d like people to view this particular moment in time as an opportunity. A time for honest reflection about what’s truly important to our collective humanity. A time for a reset as inhabitants on this beautiful planet we call home—a planet that is also home to millions of other species who share its lands, skies and waters.

My aim in offering a free download of my book Age of Union is to share with you what I think is possible when we unite. It’s to help us all with simple measures you can take starting today to promote our collective well-being. We are all in this together.

May it strengthen your resolve to start building a kinder, greener and more liveable world where everyone and everything can thrive in union.

— Dax Dasilva
