these things are irreplaceable? These films are beautifully made!

I wish the news media would wake up and report on things like this that we might be able to do something about, instead of all the junk they feed us about the daily life of the “stars” in Hollywood. I don’t consider myself an environmentalist but I feel this is far more important than most of the stories we get on the “news”. This film was released in 1989 that was 20 years ago! What is the current situation there? Has this place been wiped out or has it been protected? |
