Earth Day 20 will be celebrated on Sunday, April 22. About 100 million people all over the world are expected to take part and pledge to make the earth a healthier planet. If UNIX-users of the world were to each plant a tree on Earth Day and cared for it until it matured, it could conceivably cut Global Warming by about 50% within a few years. Plant a tree. Too much of a hassle? Maybe this poem by JOYCE KILMER will inspire you. TREES I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed Against the earth's sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain; Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree. Happy Earth Day!
