"For the not so pedantic, the new millennium is now upon us.

It is a time to reflect upon lesson learned

And those still to be learned.

A time to be thankful for "ordinary, everyday miracles"

Such as a surprise, clean air and water and

The wonderful myriad of life that we share this planet with.

These things are rapidly disapplearing

Even the sunrise

In the smog bound metropolis,

Has become unfamiliar - a stranger

All of these ordinary things

Are the very stuff upon which the human species

Ultimately depends.

Now, more than ever

At the beginning of the 21st century

The voices for the environment need to be heard. 

The book contains some of those voices." (Source: Back cover)
