The International Flag of Planet Earth

This flag means a lot to me personally, and I have the flag patch on my bags, jackets, bumper stickers, the works - I even flew a full sized flag from my residence when I lived in central Brisbane. It a powerful symbol that I want to see everywhere, a symbol that also features throughout the 'The Montague Odyssey' book trilogy.

Developed by Swiss student Oskar Pernefeldt, it represents collaboration, hope, and optimism for the future of all of Earth's species. Going further into the symbolism, it represents 'all life interconnected and interdependent, on a blue planet'. Earth is a rare gem, in a vast empty solar system, an even vaster galaxy, and it is something to be cherished and revered. 

The flag also points to a future where Earth's borders dissolve and we come together as one global human family, sharing all the land of Earth and our Moon, as the "Common Heritage of all People". Unity among the human family move us closer to becoming a truly civilised world that respects all life - from ant, to tree, to human, each other, and later even digital-life.
