WILDERNESS
Cherish your wilderness.
-- Maxine Kumin
Earth has lost 10 percent of its wilderness since the early 1990s -- an area twice the size of Alaska, according to a new study in Current Biology. In all, we've lost roughly 1.2 million square miles of wilderness in recent decades, leaving 12 million square miles still intact.
