We should recognise and respect the basic rights and needs of all people that ensure survival and well-being at the individual and collective level. Ensuring a healthy living ecosystem surrounding human activity, access to land, water, seeds and healthy safe food, education, healthcare and employment are basic undeniable rights to sustain life.

Fair Share - Redistribution of the surplus according to needs

Human activity should be shaped with respect and awareness of the limits set by natural ecosystems. Natural resources should be managed in such a way that all life forms can meet their basic needs and ensure that they have what they need to survive and thrive. When resources are surplus, they should be redistributed equitably to ensure the well-being of human communities and the natural ecosystems that surround them.
