Future Generations Alliance Foundation

About Our Logo

In June, 1992, the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, known as the Earth Summit, was convened in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. This 12-day summit, the largest environmental conference ever held, was attended by over one hundred heads of state and tens of thousands of private citizens. In order to show their commitment to future generations, Earth Summit participants and attendees signed their names to the earth summit panel stating:

“… I pledge to act to the best of my ability to help make the Earth a more secure and hospitable home for present and future generations.”

Each of the letters in the Future Generations logo were selected from various Earth Pledge panel signatures, with the intent that it should embody the hopes and aspirations of all who rejoice in the beauty and riches of the Earth.
