As you can see, This world certainly isn't cleaning itself up, not with us here, just dragging it back down. As the "top" of the food chain, I think that we have an obligation to keep our planet beautiful and, if not beautiful, at least inhabitable. The condition that the Earth is presently in is a state in which no time in history can match. We have new technologies, medicines, etc, yet, we can't seem to save the place we're living in. We've sent men to the moon, and we've taken pictures of Mars, but it looks to me like what we should really be doing is looking around us, rather than focusing on what is out there, we must first realise what is right here.
