Happy Earth Day!

"Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time." ~ Motto of the Baltimore Grotto, a caving society

"When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world.” ~ John Muir

"We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children."

  1. I have a suggestion: Go and see Disneynature's Oceans! Not only is it a beautiful film celebrating marine life (I saw an advance screening last night, and I promise you will see things that are so cool!), but in the first week Disney will donate to The Nature Conservancy for every person who goes to see the movie! A win-win situation! Happy Earth Day! :)
