22 Photos of What Nature Looked Like In The 1970s

By Daniel Bonfiglio

Published 3 months ago in Wow

Back in the 1970s, the world had a different relationship with nature. On one hand, we didn't have the environmental protection laws, or initiatives that we have now. On the other hand, we had yet to touch as much of the Earth with our dirty paws. 


Nature in the 1970s meant picturesque landscapes, backed by the ugliest skyline you've ever seen. Here are 22 photos of what that looked like.
