Event Information

As long as we are on this planet together, it is important not just to live harmoniously but also to take genuine care of the environment.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama is a passionate advocate for individual and universal responsibility. This is his message and is the very basis of his teachings and those of the Buddha. During the Hobart public talk His Holiness will present, demonstrate and discuss how responsibility for the future of the earth lies with each of us.

Our Earth, Who is Responsible? is about helping people to become aware of their individual responsibility as global citizens for their own actions, the world in which they live and for all other living beings they share it with.

Do not miss the opportunity to hear one of the most respected and thoughtful figures of our time. Reconsider what is important to you and how you can make a difference to Our Future

“As people alive today, we must consider future generations. A clean environment is a human right like any other. It is therefore part of our responsibility toward others to ensure that the world we pass on is as healthy, if not healthier then we found it."
