LETTERS

with contributions from MATT SCHMIDT, JULIE MAKIN, JOYCE MCCLURE, DONNA SUMMERHAYS

I enjoyed the article "Practicing Earthcare" by Dorrit Christiansen on the extra spiritual steps we can take in the protection and support of the environment ["How your thinking affects the environment," March 14].

As a Peace Corps volunteer in a small village in Africa without electricity, I see day-to-day examples of deforestation and overfishing of the lake. Recently I worked with my school's wildlife club to plant about 600 trees. There seemed to be little interest from the community.
