How to save the Earth
fiction
edward w pritchard
I would like to propose a modest plan to save the Earth from the anticipated sixth mass extinction caused by human over intervention in the natural environment of the planet.
Several countries of the world have religious pilgrimage walks such as the Way of St James in Spain or Mount Kalash in Tibet where wanderers go to reconnect to nature and their god.
Wouldn't it be a good small step in America if efforts were made to encourage walkers to follow the ancient buffalo trails across America? In time perhaps some of the money raised from the tourist aspects of walking on pilgrimages could be used to help save endangered species and delay the feared sixth extinction. Honoring the vanished buffalo and Native American tribes might be a good catalyst to focus attention on the sacred connection between the environment and human well being.
