Come
to us, powerful Earth,
Powers that
shift toward us
from the North.
Join us! |

We
give thanks to thee
powers of
Earth,
and we release
thee!!
I send thee
back to the North! |

She
is the mother of all things.
The protector
of us all.
She shelters
us from harm.

nature is not always kind ~ |

She
needs protection.
We need to
do more in order
to preserve
her.
Recycle all
you can. |
| |
| |
If
you throw away 2 aluminum cans,
you waste
more energy than
one billion
of the world's
poorest people
use a day. |
| |
| |
Making
a new can from scratch uses
the energy
equal to half a can of gasoline. |
| |
| |
The
average American makes
about 3.5
pounds of trash a day. |
| |
| |
 |

| |
|
|
| |
| |
Cars
and pick-up trucks are responsible
for about
20% of the carbon dioxide
released into
the
air. |
| |
| |
There
are about 500 million automobiles
on the planet,
burning an average
of 2 gallons
of fuel a day.
Each gallon
releases 20 pounds
of carbon
dioxide into the air. |
| |
| |
It
takes half the output of the Alaskan
pipeline to
heat the air that escapes
from all the
homes in the US during a year. |
| |
| |
| Please
make a commitment however small to protect our home called earth. |
