Trying to figure out Nature’s moves is  tricky business, even for scientists 
meticulously charting gyrations of  rainfall, warming of the planet and 
emissions of gases into the atmosphere.  
But despite uncertainties, this is  indisputable: 
Humankind is messing with Nature through  indifference and overt abuse at its 
peril by placing more demands on the  planet’s resources. 
Larger populations, more industry, more fuel  consumption, more gases, more 
waste disposal, more destruction of forests, less  pure air and water, 
shrinking wildlife habitat--all are warnings of a planet in  distress. 
As the climate and earth’s resources change,  the irony is that man’s habits 
don’t change. 
But they must, or risk calamity.

And I am my  brothers keeper,
And I will fight his fights;
And speak the words for  beast and bird
Till the world shall set things right.
