Down To Earth

I was told this morning that today is Earth Day, though I'm not sure if the information was accurate. I remember a time when we didn't have an Earth Day because we didn't know we needed one. And I'm not sure we do now, insofar as I'm always dubious about any form of media-driven hoopla, and its costs.

But I do know that thinking seriously and carefully about how we treat our planet is an urgent necessity. Fortunately the young people with whom I have contact are more than prepared to do so - and. I think, they'll have the gumption to act on their thoughts. I just hope they have more sense than previous generations, especially mine.
