Gaia embodies all physical and living systems working in harmony to sustain a balance on Earth. This piece follows Gaia's discovery of Her identity, both in relationship to Her residents – like us – and to the larger space that surrounds Her. Gaia struggles to compensate for the damages resulting from our prioritization of our convenience over the environment's wellbeing. But as environmental awareness rises, Gaia proudly fights to maintain our comfortable, nurturing planet. Although this uphill battle is far from conquered, acknowledging our influential roles in an integrated web of life helps us realize our importance to Gaia and Gaia's importance to us. As James Lovelock reminded us in his book The Revenge of Gaia, "Through us, Gaia has seen herself from space and begins to know her place in the universe. We should be the heart and mind of the Earth, not its malady... We should remember that we are part of Gaia, and she is indeed our home."
