No rational human would think of ripping pages from a sacred book, but the human race is ripping not just pages, but entire chapters from the sacred world. Every time a species is lost, every time a plot of ground is paved, every time an oil spill occurs, irreplaceable messages - call them environmental indicators, if you must - are ripped from the pages of time.
-James A. Tucker
