I've always been fond of the name "Big Blue Marble" which was a public television series back in the 1970's that my brother played a part in filming. They would have episodes on how children all over the world learned to do what their fathers did from bee-keeping in Greece to falconry in Iran.

If you take a trip out to the moon and look back, a "Big Blue Marble" is just what this amazing planet looks like. However, "Polluto" may be a more accurate description.
