Abstract:
We live on a truly unique and wonderful planet. It nurtures life, is home to an amazing variety of flora and fauna, and has a breathtaking variety of landscapes. However, in our quest for industrialization and urbanization, we have polluted our air and poisoned our waters, cut down trees to make way for human habitation, and have even caused the melting of polar ice caps.
