“What you see around you, after subtracting human-created objects, is the face of the effect of the history of the universe, and the sun, on the environment of earth. The living face of Earth is one of the faces of the Sun. But it is not the only face, and it is also the face of time, and origin, though there is more that might be said. Of the human-created objects, another story must be told, and while natural in a sense, they are anorganic in many others.”
