In times of climate warming, coronavirus pandemic and increasing and devastating inequalities we dedicate this book to all those who work to coordinate their efforts for a world where the future generations would experiment happier lives. Happier lives on a planet where biodiversity and the environment would be protected, happier lives in a world where, according to Jean-Jacques Rousseau principle: “No citizen would be opulent enough to buy another citizen, and none poor enough to be forced to sold him/herself.”
