 As life is fragile, so is our planet. Each day we have the opportunity to reconcile with Nature. We can stop destroying our Earth’s ecosystems, contaminating its waters and ravaging its resources through mining and deforestation, just as a devastating disease destroys a human body. We can awaken and understand the impact we are having on Nature. If not, we will be resigned to experience the ultimate power of Nature over humanity- Nature’s Revenge. In the spirit of conserving, preserving and respecting Nature, this work is constructed of only recycled materials. On our Earth, there is enough recycled material to create a new world!
