The degradation they cause is becoming more obvious to more of the public and your hard work over the decades is producing awareness. Many people are unaware of much beyond their TV screen. I praise you folks who creatively bring the large issues to the awareness of those who slug through life thinking the propaganda is the truth. Your efforts to bring awareness and to inspire others to hold the powers accountable to environmental integrity is the stuff that HEROS are ........ We just had another flag waving holiday in the US === I Do hope we learn to hold the real heros in high regard and rid ourselves of blind patriotism and sloganeering. Evolution is slow when the power machine demands "status quo". Power to the PEOPLE!!!!!!
