Earth Day – a tribute to the “blue planet”

Today is Earth Day. I’d like to share a bit of my personal journey around the blue planet. Over the past 20 years, I’ve been a fortunate witness to a fraction of it…a small fraction on an absolute scale, but one that has routinely reinforced to me just how lucky we are to be able to call this place our home. Normally I only share images of nature on Earth Day, along with a message about being environmentally conscious. But this year I decided to include some images that express the human spirit as well. It’s the one thing that connects us all. The indelible humanity that I have witnessed is what inspires me the most. We are a product of nature too, and are the primary custodians of our planet. As such, we have a collective responsibility to take care of it. It’s the only home we have…and a really awesome one, to say the least! 

Please turn up your speakers, click HD and enjoy the photo journey…and never forget how beautiful our world is! 🙂

Earth Day 2012

Today is a great day to celebrate the beauty of our planet.  As the world keeps turning and providing us with the resources we need to survive, we should all take the time to appreciate our home in this vast universe and re-focus our efforts on living a more sustainable and eco-friendly lifestyle.  Before I head out on my hike today to soak up some oxygen, sun rays and enjoy the sounds of the birds…I’d like to share a few of my favorite nature spots from around the world. Happy Earth Day 2012 my friends!
