Poets, artists and writers have glorified the beauty of the surrounding world at all times. Hundreds of thousands of poems and songs are dedicated to nature. Emotionally, a person admires nature, but in practice he treats it as a consumer, if not barbaric.
Human impact on the environment is global. The anthropogenic factor is becoming the leading one, and without taking it into account, it is impossible to understand and assess what else will happen to our common home. The level of human impact on the environment is also determined by how the changed nature affects the further development of our society.
The more we influence nature, the more actively it responds to us. And in most cases the answer turns out to be very far from favorable: the ecological situation is deteriorating, and natural disasters are increasingly occurring. The fate of the further development of mankind depends on how quickly ways will be found to resolve the contradictions between the limited capabilities of our biosphere and the type of development of society that is aggressive towards it.
The most important thing is to change something in your mind, to understand that the state of our nature depends on every little thing, on every step we take. Learn to look at nature not from the point of view of the consumer, but from the point of view of a grateful partner.
