  We are lucky to live on this planet. Now, if we could only keep from destroying it!

    THANKS FRED ~ I didn't mention of the infinite blessing of the HUMAN BRIAN which sets us a million miles apart from the rest of the FAUNA ~ We can fly ~ live underwater and even visit the MOON and get back again ! The GOOD BOOK says that GOD gave us the gift if intelligence so hat we could care fro PLANET EARTH ! And we have improving agricultural production ~ developing animal husbandry ~ developing the earths Mineral Resources etc ~ developing forms of energy ! Electrical Mechanical Nuclear Hydro Wind Nuclear etc to develop the Technological Society and Cyber Society we all enjoy ~ BUT in doing so we have doubled the atmospheric CO2 to 500 ppm (causing Global Warming) by deforestation & burning fossil fuels for energy and irreversible pollution the AIR ~ WATER & LAND irreversibly AND if we carry on we will ultimately destroy it & ourselves ~ There is nowhere else to go ! In 2073 I will only be 90 and it worries me ! Thanks for your comment BRIAN

    Thanks STEVE ~ I'm on my soapbox again about the infinite Blessings ~ GOD has FREELY bestowed on the Human Race and the theme ~ if we mess up Planet Earth ~ THERE IS NOWHERE ELSE TO GO ! Yours BRIAN

    Thanks MICHAEL ~ We are infinitely lucky to have been born on Planet earth and to live in a Democracy Like the UK ! I teach Conservation and we train students to work on Conservation in the Community ~ My MANTRA is "Wake up or PERISH !" I hope to still be around in 2070 (87 !) and only GIOD knows what things will be like then ! Thanks for your concern ~ BRIAN

  Amen to these lines showing how blessed we are to be on this planet dear Brian - - fine advice too about never taking our advantages for granted - - praise indeed for the Giver of good things to this earth and all who inhabit its beauty.

  Wonderful poem, and I just wish more people would fight to keep it the way it is. As you are an environmental scientist, you are aware of this more than most. Great and informational write, Brian!! SIsterly hugs, Christina

    Thanks CHRIS for an encouraging reply ! In my experience NURSES also have good knowledge of the ENVIRONMENT ~ because yo know how much the "quality" of the ENVIRONMENT (Air & Water etc) with respect to overall Community Health it all needs to be monitored & adjusted. Our WEATHER is becoming more like N US States (like Iowa) Colder ~ wetter ~ Winters and Hotter Summers ! Sorry you are having so much snow My Poem today is a sonnet SNOWDROPS ~ GIRLY ~ THINKING OF YOU ~ HUGS ~ BRIAN @@@@@@@
