CONSIDER 



THESE 



CHANGING 



CHALLENGES 



As the months spin by, the 

 responsibilities of stewardship grow 

 and change. New priorities and 

 problems confront us; new issues 

 and goals emerge. Ther? is more to 

 be done by each of us; more to be 

 done together — 



Can we plan land-use for whole 

 regions as well as for ranches 

 and farms? 



Can we strive for an end to 

 pollution as we've fought 

 against gullies and floods? 



Can we buUd up the ranks of soil 

 stewards as our cities and 

 suburbs expand? 



Can we find ways to capture the 

 vigor of young people who 

 care for the land? 



Can we acknowledge that rights 

 of ownership must be tem- 

 pered by the common good 



And insist that resources serve 

 people as all of them, every- 

 where, should? 



Consider these challenges. Consider 

 them well.
