Was it Wordsworth who said, ".....this beauty that will pass....."? The more I view picture galleries of sacredly lovely places on our planet, (Baikal, Connemara, Aleutians, Pribiloffs), the more I understand humanity´s great and urgent need to LOVE this place we inhabit more and more. A friend of mine says that Earth´s great survival will come about when humans become an extinct species. A difficult thought....... Can we ever learn to protect this incredible place where we live?
