Civilized by way of nature
The natural evolutionary process has persisted throughout the eons of time. A new race breed appears just to be vanquished off the face of the earth a few thousand years later. A few thousand years, nothing but a drop in the bucket of time for a earth that has existed for millions of years. What a concept to delve into, the existence of a species as compared to the existence of the planet on which we call home. The Earth has had many faces over time, and is rapidly changing, as time continues to march forward. Rapidly changing from one or two continents to seven semi-continuous continents, and even to a frozen barren wasteland and to a hot ball of molten lava and volcanic rock.

Today, the human race bothers itself with small details, as global warming and enviormental waste of our natural resources. We find solice in recycling that one can, or that one newspaper, or saving that one tree in the rain forrest. We find that it is important to protect our natural history and preserve mother earth in her pure and natural setting and protect all her creatures less they become extinct. We are a caring and concerned residents of our mother earth. We have raped her mountains, burned her plains, tore at her surface with huge excavating machinery, for which we harnessed from her basic building blocks, through our modern refinement procedures. We have taken the rocks and internal organs and melted them down into a "useful" form for which we have relayed on her landscape in order to advance us as a civilization. If we continue to use and waste her limited resources eventually we will run dry and mother earth will be stripped bare. She will have n
