It still is a beautiful world but for the degradation. People just have to realize that whatever they do with their environment impacts directly on their present and their future. When we throw garbage out we feel freed yet the flies it breeds come right back to see. At a greater dimension, when we clear forests the effects are felt not just by others but by us too.
