You knew it was inevitable. Yeah, I'm a treehugger. Some of us have to be.
K, so I don't really hug them per se, I do pat and speak to them.
Sadly it seems plants are more attune to the Earth than we, with such advanced *cough* brains/intelligence, are.
Anyways.
Earth day.
If you visit here it's quite obvious how I feel. Everyday should be earth day. Look at all the diverse life it supports. We do not know, as yet, if there are any other planets that has such. I'm sure others harbour some type of life, even if microscopic. Yes, microscopic life, too. We, ourselves (as well as other life, terra and aquatic, are like microplanets supporting life, symbiotic bacteria, for instance, and perhaps the not so beneficial parasites, as well.
I could ramble on, but if you're reading this, you know. We are not naive (remember that bigger brain/intelligence I mentioned earlier?), we just intentionally blind ourselves to what is happening. Global warming, pollution, dwindling resources, overpopulation, etc. I truly hope some of the babies being born will have the answers. Will be wiser than their parents adding yet another carbon footprint. Teach your children respect. Not just for one another, but for the planet and all its inhabitants, animal, plant, all.
There's nothing more to say, other than we should be happy the Earth is either an extremely patient (which it is) parent, or has just given up. It could, and has, wreaked havoc, maybe more so as a message like 'you shouldn't really build your houses and cities here, what did you expect?' I think it realizes innocents pay the price as well, though.

A good place to start would be cleaning up the oceans which, as far as we know, was the amniotic fluid from whence all life began.
I'm done now.
