Man's Hubris - Pollution

By trying to snatch nature's rudder  from God's almighty hand 

Man succeeded in putting life in danger on water, air, and land!

Hello Demetrios!! How true your words are here!! Unfortunately, if we don't get control of things with nature and the environment, we shall one day inherit the wind of all of these negative consequences. It will not be good occurrence for mankind. Cheers and Best, Gary

My voice echoes the sobering works of Man: The 17 billion tons of plastic floating on the oceans creating islands twice the size of Texas the largest and many more Trash islands that will take 400 years to discompose! Thank you my friend, S. W.
