Dearest readers,
As many of you may already know, EarthEntire is now a decade old with the issuance of
this volume – a special one, as an anniversary edition, but also its last. We have deeply
appreciated the love, support, and feedback from you over the past ten years, and have
always strived to live up to our own high standards to provide you with the entire experi
ence. Looking back, as the younger generation has become more and more aware of our
planet’s climate crisis, as well as the imminent and ongoing rise of the global temperature,
we feel that EarthEntire’s importance has only increased. But we accept that this magazine
was never meant to last beyond this point.
For this special, final volume, we bring to you a lighthearted farewell with a collection
of past submissions that did not make the final cut, but were nonetheless fascinating and
sparked our interest. We hope they are the same for you. Thank you for reading EarthEn
tire, even if it was one article or every issue, over the past decade.
To the readers.
The submissions we present here were approved for publication in this particular volume
by their respective authors. Also included are brief notes from all three of the chief editors
on each work. Many of these pieces were rejected because of formatting issues. Our team
decided to pay each one its due by publishing them in the style they were submitted. This
results in a rather incoherent, un-magazine-like format; however, as this is a special edition
of EarthEntire, we hope that this results in an enjoyable, interactive experience with the
unique style of each work. We have received consent to publish the work of minors from
their guardians, to encourage more young people to contribute to environmental awareness
movements. Our team is available to reach out to and will respond to any questions until
the end of this calendar year.
As always, thank you for your support.
Readers of EarthEntire!
Editor 3 here, and as usual, I’d like to thank you all for your patronage and participation
in making this magazine what it is today. I found every submission we received in my five
years at EarthEntire to be fantastic and worthy of recognition, but alas, we cannot publish
everything. As a final goodbye, we bring to you a whimsical collection of works from
authors who we personally reached out to and honored with the opportunity to display
their talents to our readers. Enjoy this unique experience, and make sure you buy all your
friends a copy!
Happy, happy reading!
P.S.: Just to confirm something many of you have been wondering about: I’ve seen all the
silly rumors going around on our site’s forum. No, I’m not an alien!
