It is Earth Day today when people all over the world mark this day in various ways. There is certainly a sort of heaviness in my memory of that particular rich habitat of wild life from my childhood years in the remote region of Northwestern China lost for ever. I regret so much for not being able to name the numerous species of birds lost to human encroachment, and so many species of trees lost to human axes , and so many species of fish lost to the diversion of river flow to agricultural irrigation. The crescent moon is dimly visible now high up in the sky , and the big elm trees start to turn green. Finally here comes an early spring.
