8) What (if anything) do you plan on doing today to show extra respect to the earth?

What do you think is the greatest threat to the environment today?

Global warming, human caused, yea or nea?

Go on and hug a tree!

Wouldn't Mars day involve throwing trash wherever you want, to fill in the empty wasteland?

I'd imagine it would involve soaking the ground with the blood of your enemies as their women lament before you.

It was just like any other day this year.

Last year, I was at a geography symposium at my university, then went to the geography department party.

The idea that humans can either destroy or save the planet is extreme chutzpah.
Humans can make the planet inhospitable to human life but we cannot destroy all the life on this planet. As things stand the one celled biota on this planet outweigh the multicelled biota a thousand to one.
