Indeed. So very depressing...

"Go for a walk in the woods... be real quiet and listen... and the wilderness will talk to you."

If only we all could hear this language.

I think the best thing we could do is send out love and good intention into the world. Even towards creeps that ruin wonderful landscapes like those.... AHEM... I mean, PEOPLE... people who ruin landscapes. Eventually we'll ALL have to see our own shortcomings. Otherwise, we're all dead xd
I think it makes it easier to see those shortcommings if you have someone that cares about you.

So if this the case then god D*MN it I care about the people responsible for raping the land. -SO- very much.

Yeah, people (especially COUGHbushCOUGH) tend to look for immediate, positive results only for themselves. But really, in the long run, we're all gonna kill ourselves off if this continues. And that's like EVERYONE. In the entire world. Geez, people, get a life and stop to enjoy NATURE and appreciate what you have now and try to KEEP IT THERE!!!

For the first time in a long time. I finally was able to stay outside in the warmth of Spring and breath deep and feel good.

Major coal mining company's do go for the biggest profit, but there are laws now to make sure the sites are reclaimed after mining! The EPA regulate these things on a regular basis, but you will always have that ONE company that decides to cut out half their costs by saying screw the habitat!

Our political leaders are so blind.
Can't they see the fact that not only are we destroying the beauty of our country, but that eventually, there won't be any left anyway.

Is it really worth it?

I believe us,as humans, should make an effort to atleast take care of our environment as well as possible. There have been many laws passed on emissions and other things, but that might not be enough. All matter that is created continues on as other parts of matter, hints thats why we have so many landfills and such. I recently wrote a paper on methane emissions and landfills, along with biomass, it promises to be a good source of energy and would get rid of the problem. Yes there could be problems with it, such as the cost but the human race has created so much, including nuclear power which creates a massive amount of pollution due to the decayed uranium. I guess all im saying is we can create many things that would help out our environment and our gas price problem. Making a corn borne fuel is a good alternative, a lot less pollution and it would put our farmers to work. Then we have the issue of global warming! Many scientists believe that this is a hoax, taking the same information from others that believe otherwise and setting them to their own beliefs. Indeed the increase in CO2 does benefit plants to a point, but in excess it increases earths temperatures. This could melt the ice caps and raise oceans levels, well CA would probably be gone. Well im done ranting for now so until next time!
