What a novel idea, getting up close and personal with plants, animals and the environment and then leaving it just as it was found. Without impact, or damage! Sometimes that means bypassing that once-in-a-lifetime experience or forsaking the urge for a take home souvenir. It’s important to remind ourselves that we’re not alone in this world and to also understand, it’s not fair to treat the rest of the world as if we are all that matters.
