Life without nature
ADVANTAGES OF NATURE
It is possible for mankind to live in a world without nature – forever disconnected from our roots in the wild. I live in this world now and life in Eastern China appears, at least to me, to be a harbinger of the future. A crowded world, serving only one master – mankind. I believe this is our inevitable destiny as a species and the future is not bright.
Human well-being depends on the benefits that nature provides for free, everyday and everywhere. ... Humans depend on ecosystems such as forests and coral reefs for clean water, fertile soils, food, fuel, storm protection, minerals and flood control.
What is Nature?
Nature, in the broadest sense, is the natural, physical, or material world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large part of science. Although humans are part of nature, human activity is often understood as a separate category from other natural phenomena.
