so we try to think what are the drivers
that created this change of awareness
because no one really does that with
without feeling guilt even if you did
throw things out the window with
disregard in fact there’s some
interesting scenes and madmen which of
course takes place in the 60s you just
see them doing things whap did we do
that
people walk into an elevator smoking a
cigarette did we do that and they finish
a picnic and they toss everything on the
ground did we do that so so why did all
this change what happened in the late
60s and we go to 1968 the most turbulent
year of a turbulent decade
assassinations the Tet Offensive the
anti-war movement and in that year this
photo was published yes earth rise
Apollo 8 they went to the moon orbited a
dozen 15 times and then came back
snapped this picture this was published
in 1968 and we see earth as nature
intended us to view it like with oceans
and land and clouds we go to the moon to
explore the moon and we discover earth
for the first time and I looked at what
happened after this photo was taken in
the four years that we were going to the
moon 68 69 70 71 and into 72 five years
excuse me
and of 68 into 72 that’s when all of
this happened when was the Environmental
Protection Agency founded 70 1970 okay
when was they founded 70 1970 when we
were going to the moon net and we had
other issues in 1970 right right
there’s fascinations and and unrest on
college campuses and all of a sudden
people started thinking about Earth’s
earth right 1972 the catalytic converter
is introduced leaded gasses banned DDT
is banned 1973 all these early years of
the decade
the comprehensive Clean Air Act and
Clean Water Act all was in that period
so I’m thinking
we go to space and well why are we going
to space there’s one of the really cool
thing about that image
it was internet you know the NASA
missions are so scripted they you know
they flat out yeah yeah yeah that was
unanticipated and when you listen to the
the dialogue that took place it was hey
get the camera quick no one had actually
said hey we’re gonna come around the
backside of the moon and see there
didn’t think and I think of the idea
that that that appreciation that the
narrative power of that actually was
more important than the mission part of
it
that created this change of awareness
because no one really does that with
without feeling guilt even if you did
