In perspective ... Planet Earth is 4.6 billion years old. If we condense this inconceivable time-span into an understandable concept, we can liken the Earth to a person of 46 years of age.

Notable... "The nation that destroys its soil, destroys itself. " - Franklin Delano Roosevelt

In perspective... if Earth is the equivalent of a 46 year old, dinosaurs did not appear until a year ago when the planet was 45. Mammals arrived, only eight months ago and in the middle of last week, men-like apes evolved into ape-like men. Modern man has been around for four hours and during the last hour man discovered agriculture.
