I was saying to a friend that I can see that the skies are emptier than when I was growing up.

The saddest thing is if you learn about the wildlife populations the first Europeans recorded in America. Skies darkened by birds. Game by the tens of thousands.

We live in an empty desert of our own making now and most of us don’t even know it.
