A Matter of Perspective
Our planet may still look like a blue marble from space, but the true story is found on the surface. There are no hidden secrets here. The disrespect for Mother Earth is laid bare for all to see. Forests are razed for industry. Air and water pollution may seem on the decline, but to say that it will ever end is denying the truth. We are destroying our planet. Every day should be Earth Day.
her hidden beauty
a matter of perspective
when you know the truth
