| Gold or money
has become the standard benchmark of success in our society.
Ironically, the pursuit of this type of temporary wealth has often
led to exploitation of humans, animals, plants and natural
resources in general.
ORO VERDE explains how the mentality behind this
value system has caused a global crisis that is much deeper than
most of us are aware of.
ORO VERDE
takes you on a journey of consciousness that is required to
achieve an environmentally sound way of life.
