  1. Terrible réalité et l’impression d’assister à l’agonie de notre planēte. Cela fait peur. La sociėté moderne se sucide !

    • I agree with both statements from Peter.The planet was a gift to cherish like many indigenous tribes did,but the greed and self-centered people of today are more concerned with entering that Black Friday store than picking up the mess we have made.Whether it be animal,vegetable or mineral…we have gorged ourselves to death.”Man shall be his own demise.”
