I. PRIMARY FIRE ELEMENT

Around Fire We grew from the times of our Ancestors.

That was in the times when we have been much more attached to the Place.

We cared about Our Land and about Our Tribes.

We have been gathering in circles around it and decide for our Common Future.

It is the time of the tribal music, tribal dances and masks,

based partly on the Swiss mountain traditions.

 

II. MODERN TECHNOLOGICAL ENERGY

The Fire has moved Our Civilization

Ever faster and faster,

glowing stronger and stronger,

creating every day more Technologic Energy.

Modern dance. Electronic music. Laser and multimedia show.


III. NON-SUSTAINABLE ENERGY USE

This growth was based on the wrong assumptions.

Assumptions of the instant gratification.

It has been praising over-consumption and a short-term vision.

The planet resources are not endless.

They are not made for this strong self – digestion.

The Earth needs to become again sustainable to survive.
