A sobering reminder of the fact that our efforts to "save the planet" are actually efforts to save the human race. (Not claiming it as an original thought, but can't remember where I heard it sad.gif )

Sometimes the ruins of life can speak very eloquently of the nature of life.  The skeleton of things can give you the best idea of the way they go together.  Thanks Kris for showing us that link; I really enjoyed some of those images!

What a link!  And these pictures are only the tip of the iceberg, we watched a TV show a while ago on China and there are many many abandoned places there.

Ive never been to Detroit, but have a friend who has to go there on police business, and that is full of abandoned places, and scary places.

And after a serious drought in Australia, there were lots of abandoned places, though people come back decades later.

A long while ago driving around on a Caribbean island, we were on a rough overgrown dirt road, we came to junkyardy looking place where there were about 200 large abandoned yachts. And some of them were beautiful!  Just sitting there in the sun in that hole in the jungle rotting away, the fence had been torn down, and probably most of them had been stripped of contents.

Thank you for this photo gallery, very interesting,
Jane
