15. When our hands

Release the strangling grip on the neck of nature, this planet will be amazingly healthy. Then God can sit back and marvel at his creation, after the cancerous parasite is abolished.
Many species of trees have NOT survived us. During 30 years teaching Forest Ecology at college, I have seen so many lose the fight against us. Not just harvesting, but insect and disease death that we transfer to biomes they should not be in. Kind of like us invading bat caves we should not be in.
We need so many John Muir's and Joyce Kilmer’s in positions of power to protect plant life. The NEW Interior leader is a great start. A little Native American respect for earth and plant life is the right direction. Trees will thrive without us. Without trees, ain’t gonna be no is.
