Enjoying Mother Nature’s Gifts

Tomorrow is Earth Day.

The first Earth Day took place in 1970 when I was a young student. I recall the many loud calls to conserve and protect our natural resources. The task ahead was to improve the way the worldwide economy functions so as to reduce and/or prevent harm to our environment. The goal was to keep our planet viable into the future.

The general consensus is that we have a long way to go to change the trajectory of our collective and personal behavior to reach the goal. I’m not here to judge or criticize. Instead I’ll continue to minimize my carbon footprint and encourage those that I can influence to do the same.

I’ve spent a considerable amount of my free time roaming the outdoors USA visiting so many wonderful places that Mother Nature has provided. From this small gallery of photos I’ve collected along the way you can tell that I’m a admirer and lover of our planet.

Over the years I’ve written other Earth Day articles. Here’s one from two years ago on my other site.

Happy Earth Day.
