Shangrila Is Vanishing

THE DREAM HAS BEEN
LOST.

SHANGRILA IS
VANISHING.

LOOKING OUT ON THE
NATURAL LANDSCAPE,

THE TAKERS ARE
DESTROYING THE LAND.

ONE BY ONE, THE
GREED TAKES OVER,

BLINDING THEM FROM
CARE TAKING MOTHER
EARTH.

GREED HAS NO
BOUNDARIES,

NO CONSCIOUSNESS.

WE MUST REMEMBER,

WE ARE CARE TAKERS
OF THE EARTH,

ON A TRANSITORY
JOURNEY

OF CREATION AND SELF
DISCOVERY,

NOT DESTRUCTION.

LET US CREATE A NEW AND 
SUSTAINABLE STORY FOR 
PLANET EARTH.



DEDICATED TO
THEODORE ROOSEVELT
NATIONAL PARK IN
NORTH DAKOTA.
