Earth Day Follow

Following David Suzuki

I have fond childhood memories of “The Nature of Things”, a TV program that inspired my family on Sunday evenings at home. I’ve been following David Suzuki and his passion ever since. On this Earth Day I want to pass some of his inspiration on to you as well. David Suzuki.org is worth following now and all year long.

Sincerely, Mark
