An essay on the environment and our place in it. Presages the tenuous state of our environment and our place in it. As our technical abilities have moved forward, our judgment has not kept pace. “What we call natural resources cannot be limited to gas, oil, pulpwood, or uranium – we are starving the natural resources in ourselves. The soul needs to stretch; being needs to exercise.”
