Nature Quote by Akash Mandal
““We stole the sky from the birds, with clouds that cache fly ash from the coal. Spoiled the waters with spilled oil, now the fish wish to live in a bowl. Beheaded the trees in the name of growth; concrete roads erode the soil from its soul. Poached and piled animals like wild animals, and forgot to realize the rise in their death toll. Flogged the icebergs down with the whip of heat, and rang hell's bells from pole to pole. We are already sinners against nature, is reaching the sinners by nature stature our ultimate goal?””
