Don't you hate it when you see some thoughtless driver throw a paper cup out their car window, or find cuts on trees, trash in a stream, an injured animal, that is the result of broken glass in a forest, or a flagrant leaving of a campfire without dousing it to insure it doesn't start a wildfire? These are caused by folks who do not love the outdoors! They don't have what it takes to care for creation. On the other hand, those who love the outdoors clean up after the thoughtless ones just because they do care. My question is how can we generate a love for the outdoors? To me thats the starting point.
