I was just given a quote from a statement Thich Nhat Hanh wrote in 2015, shortly before the Paris Climate Summit:

“Many of us have become alienated from the Earth. We are lost, isolated and lonely. We work too hard, our lives are too busy, and we are restless and distracted, losing ourselves in consumption.”

“To think in terms of either pessimism or optimism oversimplifies the truth. The problem is to see reality as it is.”

The ocean of suffering is immense,
but if you turn around,
you can see the land.

"The understanding expressed here is rooted in what I saw from #ThichNhatHanh as a kid. He encouraged me to keep looking into Jesus’s teachings, even though I was furious with “#Christianity” and the damage it had caused. I felt hurt, betrayed, and abused by the lies that had been told for thousands of years. But I kept looking, and over time, I began to see that #Jesus wasn’t at all like the version that been sold to us." https://www.facebook.com/BuddhaGangBodhisattva/posts/pfbid0hg6iDrECkjsThhZiyuWMMuC14oLCZ3CDwTiHPun49kgmMe2qBGHUjZnZ9yRS4Hzl #PlumVillage #BuddhaGang @buddhagang @plumvillage
