The representatives of fellow nations have just met at the Glasgow COP26 summit on climate change.
Of course the Federation of Pangaea was not invited. First of all, the Federation of Pangaea cannot help but question the scientific nature of "stopping climate change", given the fact that climate is not a static system. It always changes, regardless of human existence; and world temperatures are expected to rise even if humans were to disappear, due to the fact that the Sun's irradiance output is steadily increasing, now standing at about 130% compared to the beginning of prehistoric times. If humans are to hold a summit on "stopping climate change", I propose that they also hold a summit on "stopping the orbit of the Earth" next.
There were some valid points made, however. We applaud the promotion of methods and technologies, may they be old or new, that are friendly to the rest of the biosphere, which we consider a partner and an extension to the Federation of Pangaea. We are similarly concerned with pollution such as the plastic catastrophe, as it affects the Earth overall, and, therefore, ourselves.
Yet, the Federation of Pangaea had already found the solution, and has already implemented it as an integrated part of the community. The solution is exceedingly simple, and could be summed up with a single article from our Universal Charter, Article 42:
This Article appears simple, yet enforces a powerful aspect of the Federation of Pangaea: self-sufficiency, which is the opposite of centralized industrialization - the very cause of modern environmental issues.
Leaders of fellow nations have succeeded in filling the oceans with plastics. A large portion of those plastics come from grocery stores wrapping, food packaging, disposable utensils, etc. In our nation, we instead promote self-sufficiency in alimentation, so that our citizens are allowed to grow and access their very own fresh food. This eliminates dependency on grocery stores, which might be viewed as a threat to old economical models, but also eliminates our need for the associated packagings.
Leaders of fellow nations are hoping to concentrate their people into urban areas, like cattle. This is not our strategy. Our own strategy is to educate our own people on a proper interaction and partnership with their local Nature, so that every citizen becomes a valuable part of the biosphere, a guardian of his/her local environment.
Leaders of fellow nations intend on controlling the food their people eat, banning meat and encouraging pharmaceutical industries - meanwhile, they are attempting to control explosions of wildlife populations, to the extent of mass-killing deer in North America. The people of the Federation of Pangaea, on the other hand, are aware of their local resources, take an active part in the cycle of Life, becoming an actor alongside with the other animals as a complete system, and help regulate their local environment. Additionally, they are aware of the natural medicinal resources around them, eliminating the need for massive pharmaceutical industries and their associated chemical pollution.
Leaders of fellow nations encourage large centralized corporations, generating waste on a massive scale, pollution due to shipment, and unreliable products that break rapidly so to force consumers to buy again. Instead, we Pangaeans build or exchange our own items ourselves, we build them in a durable manner, and for obvious logistical reasons we tend to avoid producing more than our needs as individuals; since producing more requires more time or energy.
Indeed, we are an embodiment of the solution; however our simple approach is incompatible, almost alien with most obsolete economical systems. Whereas fellow nations aim towards more control and more financial gains, we instead aim towards a harmony with the biosphere and more wisdom.
And this is why we do not regret having been declined audience at Glasgow. The success of our very culture and ways speak for themselves.

Every citizen has the right to self-sufficiency, to produce anything, to harvest anything, to create anything, and to sell anything within such a person's property, provided doing so does not cause unwelcomed damage to another person's property or body, and does not infringe on any articles of the Charter.
