Silent Spring Encore

Silent Spring Encore

“The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction.” Rachel Louise Carson

Dr Abe V Rotor

Parrots prepare to roost at twilight

Shh... listen to the birds in the trees -
But where have all the birds gone?
Carson in her Silent Spring warns 
of the indifference of man. - avr

   
Fossilized balot egg  

No translation in words, this tragedy,
balot, a unique, gruesome delicacy;
unknowingly taking place in nature, too,
         as the wildlife is losing its diversity. - avr

“For most of history, man has had to fight nature to survive; in this century he is beginning to realize that, in order to survive, he must protect it. “ ~ Jacques-Yves Cousteau
