I Went Back To The Beautiful Places I Once Photographed, What I Saw Was Devastating.
I gave this talk because the disappearing beauty of the world around us deserves to be recognized. The way that these changes affect us all, on a personal level, should be our catalyst for change. I hope that this leaves you inspired to appreciate the nature that surrounds you and the impermance we live with, today.

We are the one who appreciates the beauty and also the one behind those devastations. We the humans are destructing almost everything, we borrow so many things from nature in order to live well but in return, we are ruining everything. Don't know when we will realize it. :(
It’s so hard to balance this life of progress with responsiblity toward nature.

These pictures say it all. We really don't know what's going on to our land until we go there once and come back again. Great depiction of our current changes!
You’re so right Tiffany. There’s got to be a better way to know what is happening to the land

Oh great another post about how time changes things as if we didn't already know this. Thanks for wasting 20 minutes of my precious life.
That it took you 20m to read this is disconcerting. .
