Don Henley's greatest gift to the presrvation of the earth!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Heaven Is Under Our Feet (Paperback)
Don Henley and David Marsh have collaborated on one of the most thought provoking environmental essays since the lengendary Henry David Thoreau. Don Henley has been at the forground of environmental issues for many years. Growing up in a small Texas town, Don has been heavily influenced by nature and the natural beauty that surrounds us. This is paticularly evident to anyone who has ever heard any of (Mr.Henley's/ The Eagle's)music. Many of Don's songs include images or scenes of nature. In "Heaven Is Under Our Feet", Don assembled some of today's prominent figures to give their analysis of the growing environmental issues that plague us today; and our children tomorrow. Hopefully by using "high profile" figures, more people will become aware of the problems that surround us in our everyday environment. The main message that I received from the book was that many people live in a state of apathy. People don't care what goes on around them as long as they get theirs. We need to change this way of thinking. We need to start thinking globally, instead of thinkig locally. The greatest resource we have is our children. The best gift we can give our children is a chance. A chance to experience nature as it was created. "HEAVEN IS UNDER OUR FEET AND ABOVE OUR HEADS"Charles Rapp
