Beau LottoNo one is an outside observer of nature, We're defined by our environment and our interaction with that environment -- by our ecology. And that ecology is necessarily relative, historical and empirical.
About This Quote
The term “ecology” is derived from the Greek word oikos, which means "home." The idea was that ecology was like a home or house, which you can either make into a habitable place or ruin. Environmentalism has become synonymous with the idea that humans are in charge of the home. But if the home is not in your control, you can't do anything about it. Instead of trying to create a new home in our current home, we must accept the changes in our environment and try to live with them.
The fact is that no one can live in an environment that they have never experienced, so we shouldn't try to predict what will happen when our Earth changes. We must also realize that how we act in this new world will determine how our home will change when it does change.
