Земля – це наш рідний дім. Тому зв’язок людини з природою, безумовно, особливий. На цій землі зросли наші прадіди й діди, батьки, брати та сестри. Це наше багатство, яке століттями оберігали й боронили. Тоді розуміли, що на любов земля обов’язково відповість взаємністю. Та за вікном двадцять перше століття – час нанотехнологій і кам’яних джунглів. З приходом таких змін у природі втратилася певна рівновага. Людина відчула себе хазяїном, паном і навіть володарем Всесвіту. Вона знає, що добре, а що погано. Проте не все так просто. На порозі стала екологічна катастрофа. Забруднення водойм, вирубка лісів, викиди токсичних речовин у повітря – це найменший перелік проблем, які з року в рік накривають Землю. Безвідповідальність людей вражає. Вона вже призвела до Чорнобильської катастрофи. А що далі? Скалічена земля, скалічені долі. Куди не глянь – занедбані села, вирубки, болота на місцях, де колись протікали могутні ріки. Все змінилося. Люди поступово перетворюються в роботів. Усі живуть за принципом: моя хата з краю. Аби тільки не чіпали. А свою байдужість перед природою пояснюють постійною зайнятістю. Прикро, що обурюються тільки тоді, коли змінити нічого не можна, коли вже край. Але невже не видно, як природа просить про до Вона хоче дарувати нам свою любов, ніжність, тепло. Вона хоче знову усміхатися на повні груди і не відкашлювати шкідливі речовини. Невже потрібно знищити, щоб потім знову довелося відроджувати? Треба почати зміни з себе, з кожного. Варто переглянути своє ставлення до матінки-землі, бо іншого такого шансу вона нам не дасть.
