Conservation Chart

From Drabtown to Pleasantville – the story of proper conservation.

Two tales of conservation efforts are displayed on this chart, which outlines the interconnected system of cities, rivers, forests, farms, and other ecosystems that populate our planet.

The upper right presents a less than ideal situation; with Drabtown surrounded by pollution, a muddy river, dust storms, and poor forestry. However, the application of better practices as one goes to the lower left ends up with an idyllic circumstance in the form of Pleasantville.
