    Ecology, most simply put, is "the study of relationships between organisms and their environment". (Encyclopedia Britannica) Garrett Hardin, writer of the essay Lifeboat Ethics: The Case against Helping the Poor was a professor of human ecology at the University of California at Santa Barbara and had some extremely harsh opinions about the solution to global population issues. As a professor of human ecology, Hardin studied the relationship between humans and their environment, and in this case the entire globe. It is a well known fact that environmental degradations, unequal wealth distribution and exponential population growth are growing problems in the world, and in his essay, Hardin explains that there are relatively simple solutions to these problems. While Hardin's solutions to the interconnected global environment, economic and population problems are harsh and potentially immoral, Hardin convinced me they are the only solutions to a growing global issue.…

    Ecology may be broadly defined as the study of the interrelationships or interactions among the different components of the ecosystem. All the ecosystem components are directly and /or indirectly linked with one another. “There is constant interchange of various kinds within each system, not only between the organic and inorganic” (Tansley,1935). The linking forces are two processes: the energy flow process, and the biochemical cycle. In other words, ecosystem components are linked to one another by the transfer of energy and nutrients via trophic (feeding) relationships. It can be said that these two processes unify the ecosystem to function as a unit. Of equal importance in the functioning of the ecosystem is the evolutionary process, which is unique to living organism.…
