Photo Finish

Ansel Adams was a great artist, but I am confident he is turning over in his grave at the destruction being wreaked on his beloved planet (“America’s Wilderness Eye,” editorial, Feb. 23). Today he would be photographing the growing deserts, the crumbling glaciers, the once-snow-covered mountains now dry and barren, the dwindling fisheries, the destruction from the exaggerated weather patterns. We are now on an accelerating path to extinction of species in nature.

Since we belong to nature, that includes our species. We need that story told in pictures. Until then, a concise report can be found at https://www.eces.org, a nonprofit voluntary Web site whose simple facts are chilling.
