Sierra Nevadas....Range Of Light

Gary's speech was pretty cool, and I would love to hear his full lecture one day. I used to have a hard time thinking about the "economy" of nature, but I realized prior to this lecture that it gives people who are otherwise unaware of its importance something to focus on. He brought up how the sierras have helped and influenced our lives, and how we have helped and influenced their journey. It reminded me of this book I read called Life Counts. No it's not a self help book. It's a book that shows a lot of the economical value of our nature world. Like how much work Earthworms do. How helpful rivers are. How much energy the sun produces for us to harvest. We really should be thanking the Earth more than we do, and especially our local Earth, like the Sierra Nevadas. Maybe if we do she'll give us a good snowpack this year!
