Ecology-Socio-Economic principle that:
…intentionally cares for the earth
as it holistically cares for people and the environment.
…consciously blesses back its workforce
and the community where it belongs
in a manner that empowers and improves the value of life.
Lastly, it recognizes, honors and gives back all the glory to the
