SNOW PATROL

MONOLOGUE WRITTEN BY CLYDE LEWIS

Ecologists and environmentalists have told us that the earth is a bountiful planet rich in resources. We also hear doomsayers tell us that the planet is seeing its share of limited resources and that we should be aware of what influence man has had on the planet and that we are pushing ourselves headlong into extinction.

It is however interesting to note that while we have a planet that is arguably rich in resources – we also live in a place where nature keeps hidden from sight many mysteries that we can only speculate about.

There is much about planet Earth that remains frustratingly unknown.

Modern science for the most part ignores what it doesn’t understand, thus leaving an alarming amount of things in our world today unexplained.

Most Americans are unaware that we have more than 84 million acres of of preserved woods, deserts, mountains and other wilderness, are unexplored. We just take for granted they are there and that there are primitive areas where strange activities take place.

There is even more areas around the world that have their fare share of mysteries and there have been adventurous souls that have venture out into these places and have vanished – some are later found.
