Venus, our sister planet. Was she once like us?

Did she have rolling green hills and mountainous water falls? Did she have deep blue oceans of life? Did she?

Venus, our sister planet. Was she once like us?

Did she have war ravaged countries? Did she have repeating periods of genocide? Did she?

Venus, our sister planet. Was she once like us?

Did she have smoke spewing factories that clogged the sky? Did she have miles of cleared rainforest replaced with traffic? Did she?

Venus, our sister planet. Was she once like us?

Did she have a chance to save herself?

Do we?

    I really liked how this story got me to really think about us, and what we’re doing, but it also is a very well written piece of work.
