Public Trust

Water flows over these hands
May I use them skillfully
To preserve our precious planet.
Thich Nhat Hanh
 
Buddhist Peace Fellowship PDX will be meditating on Wednesday morning at a local high school where the Oregon Supreme Court will be holding a session considering the extent of “public trust.” Does it include the right to clean rivers, sea, forest lands and atmosphere as the youth in the case assert? The right to inherit a livable planet from their elders?
