The real cure for our environmental problems is to understand that our job is to salvage Mother Nature. We are facing a formidable enemy in this field. It is the hunters... and to convince them to leave their guns on the wall is going to be very difficult Picture Quote #1

I think the environmental problem will be the number one item on the agenda of the 21st century... This is a problem that cannot be postponed Picture Quote #1
