Erosion causes all natural, and man-made objects to disappear over time, at least when viewed over geological times scales. I feel that there are good reasons for spending money to preserve both natural, and man-made wonders within reason, when the reasons for doing so are serving a purpose other than just vanity, or arrogant self interest. 1) Preserving natural wonders, when not at the cost of destroying others serves as the best method for ensuring that theyare appreciated, and expereinced by the largest number of people. This offeres the best chance to make people aware of the true wonder, and beauty of our world, and remind them of it's fleeting nature. It also demonstrates the cost of losing them, and reminds people of how fragile they can be, and how easily they can be lost. 2) Preserving man-made objects serve as visible reminders of the things we are capable of accomplishing, bith good and bad. The illustrate in a way that nothing else can, the incredible beauty we can create, the vision we are capable of bring to life, and also the cruelty, horror, and short-sightedness we are also capable of. People tend to forget what they can't see, touch, hear, and rarely understand what we lose as nature takes it's inevitable course of constant erosion, and rebuilding. I believe we whould strive to preserve what we can, keeping in mind that nothing we do will ever stop the process, merely delay it, nor should we stop that process, as for every thing eventually lost to time, and erosion, is replaced by the creation of a new wonder somewhere else.

In Virginia, there are a multitude of cave systems formed by the erosion of the limestone rocks,and having other minerals deposited by the running, or dripping, water over eons of time. Cave systems can be very unique erosion artifacts. Carlsbad Canyon out west in the US is another super cave system.
