An Open Letter for Earth - 2020 Who I am does not matter. What matters are the lives of every person on this planet. Earth has been home to all of us and it is time we did something together to protect it. How we came here also does not matter. Just know that, as a human, you do not like wallowing in filth, the earth does not like being polluted. This years earth days is different. Most countries have imposed some sort of lock down while others have imposed social distancing. What is not different is that this has happened before and unfortunately, will happen again. It is part of life, the unending battle between mans spirit to conquer its domain and the ability of the domain to kill it. I hear all of you, the ones who think they are educated and the ones who think that there are conspiracies in every corner but the fact remains, we all have to come together if we are to survive. What we thought of normalcy, of being out and about may not return in a while, not unless we are inoculated. For now, to fight against this scourge, we ALL have to take the same actions TOGETHER, AT THE SAME TIME to break the infection cycle. I hear the poor calling our, help us for we cannot fend for ourselves and the rich claiming that if this keeps up they will have to fold their businesses. What is true, is that change is inevitable. Even now, businesses are restructuring and retooling to move faster into the next generation of business. People and reaching out more online, clogging some networks in some countries. Business change and people change. I hope for the better because we as a species can do better. Perhaps this is the time for humanity to take a step back and reevaluate its priorities. What it is about us that makes us good and how can we benefit our common man, our neighbor next door, our work colleague, our relatives and loved ones? Answers to these questions will undoubtedly lead us to new and wonderful new discoveries that in time, with hope, lead us to a better relationship with our planet. Thus I wish you a happy and joyful day. I hope you are safe where you are and I hope you take time with people you love, and also people you may not necessarily agree with to come together in harmony. Happy Earth Day 2020. Anon.
