The Earth of Our Discontent
это парафраза названия романа Стейнбека "Зима тревоги нашей", "The Winter of Our Discontent", которое само по себе взято из "Ричарда III" Шекспира.

Alexander Palatash
: Стейнбек Стейнбеком, но заголовок "Земля нашего недовольства" никак не ассоциируется со статьей об экологических проблемах. Кроме того, по-русски обыгрываются "зима" и "земля", а по-английски игры слов не получается.

Александр, аллитерация между "зимой" и "землей" лишь незначительно усиливает игру слов - для носителя английского языка игра по-прежнему остается.

We fret over Mother Earth
The heath of our Mother Earth worries us."To fret" ,normally, is a worry about your pet or somebody fragile, when they are ill. The word "нашей" I've replaced with "Mother".

terrestrial worries
Передать оригинальную игру слов все равно не представляется возможным. Предлагаю такой вариант заголовка.

Alexandra Taggart
: "terrestrial" that is of Earth in scientific sense.Here the difficulty appears:only you try to put the term into poetry - it sounds as a "stitched"(made up) collocation .

Our heart-wrenching Land
pretty, isn't it?
"Discontent" is tempting but wrong, because it implies not being preoccupied FOR but being in some way in disaccord WITH.
And it's not Earth but Land, here, because Earth with the capital E is the whole planet.
