   The list of twelve pictures on the home page are glorius and vastly spaced, showing us the beauty that is Earth at any given time. They also bring one’s relationship with God in a new, more appreciative light. Thanks to the photographers, editors, and publishers who took the time and money to make, at least my world, more optomistic and asthetically pleasing, filled with new found wonderment. Randy R.

   Dear Friends of Earth & Sky,

   Thanks for reminding us of the natural world we inhabit. If the human community is not careful, these vistas could be obliterated by the pernicious effects of certain distinctly human-driven overgrowth activities now overspreading the surface of the Earth.

   Many too many leaders today are behaving in a woefully inadequate manner. These economic powerbrokers and their bought-and-paid-for politicians, with great wealth and power as well as responsibilities to assume and duties to perform, have evidently chosen to take the human community down a “primrose path” and to race toward oblivion without a care for what our children could confront because of the spectacularly self-seeking behavior of their selfish elders.

   These leaders are thinking of themselves and ignoring the Earth.

   The primrose path chosen by too many of our leaders is not the only path, not the one right way to live. Despite all they and their minions have said and we have heard so often, the path of endless economic growth, reckless dissipation of natural resources, irreversible degradation of the environs, and unrestrained human population increase is not the only path, not “the only game in town.” Perhaps the relentless pursuit of precisely this “unbridled global human growth path” to the future could result in a colossal catastrophe like the one witnessed by the King of kings named Ozymandias.

   Sincerely,

   Steve
