Time to act. Earlier we're near to nature and God too and were living a fresh life moment to moment, but, now, we are moving aways from nature or forcing species vacate our society or living place, is the meaning one scientist feels.

Any how, we'll have ecological balance one day, as an optimist, I feel so, that will complete the ecological cycle, cycle of conscience-balance as well.
