George R. Stewart and Earth Day Many people credit the Sierra Club’s Exhibit This Is The American Earth and the subsequent Sierra Club book based on the exhibit as the foundation of Earth Day. Others credit the first Whole Earth photographs taken by the Apollo 8 crew. Both are important events. I believe, however, that the initial … Continue reading GEORGE R.

AN OPEN LETTER TO HUMANITY FROM PLANET EARTH. AGAIN – BY TOM CURLEY
Hi Humanity. Earth here. I just heard that today you are celebrating the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. You seem to think it's a pretty big deal.

IT’S THE 50th ANNIVERSARY OF EARTH DAY – Marilyn Armstrong
Trump is an awful man. I can't seem to find something positive to say about him and for me, that's unusual. I can always empathize, even with very bad people (not including one ex-husband). But not Trump. For him, I can't find a teardrop of compassion. He has no soul or conscience. He is a … Continue reading IT’S THE 50th ANNIVERSARY OF EARTH DAY – Marilyn Armstrong

SNOW BY DAY & A DASH OF DUKE – Marilyn Armstrong
I got up and went into the kitchen. It was snowing. Just a little bit at that point. Just a dusting -- a rather wet dusting. I figured it was going to stop any minute, but it kept on snowing for most of the day. For all I know, it still is snowing, but it's … Continue reading SNOW BY DAY & A DASH OF DUKE – Marilyn Armstrong
