This poem “Kangaroos near Hay” by John Foulcher is a poem that represents man vs nature, this concept is shown through the image of a kangaroo being horse like, through the opening lines “head like a horse.” This reinforces an image of power and full of strength, to being twisted by the back bone into a coil which gives a very powerful, violent and gruesome image in the mind of readers.…
In the article Earth, Nature and Culture, Yi-Fu Tuan commits a whole section to the relationship between nature and society. Tuan states that, “Human restlessness finds release in geographical mobility.” Tuan states that when telling the human story, it begins with nature. The article says that as humans we have very conflicting feelings towards nature. On one hand we realize that we need nature to survive. It provides us with food and shelter and most of our basic needs. On the other hand, nature has ways of destroying us. It can send disasters to completely throw off the human race. For example, nature can provide soil rich in nutrients that allows humans to plant and grow our own food to survive, but it can also send a drought causing the soil to dry out and our crops to die. According to Tuan, culture is how humans compensate for our conflicting feelings.…
Do you believe that our natural world can come to an end because of our actions and careless attitudes? It is obvious that the global environmental changes are primarily caused by the growing trend of human’s actions and industrial revolution. Unfortunately, these changes are irreversible and directly contribute to the continuous deterioration of our planet. This is the topic that Thomas Friedman (2016) focuses on his article, “We are all Noah now”. In this article “We are all Noah now” Friedman (2016) states that the planet and human’s life are seriously affected by these changes. The author discussed many issues by explaining their sever impact. One major issue humans do is deforestation, where the tree cutting is on rise with diverse consequences…
Charles Krauthammer, in his essay “Saving Nature, but Only for Man,” argues against whom he refers to as a sentimental environmentalist. Charles Krauthammer is a well-known right-wing political columnist and commentator who has worked or contributed to a number of magazines throughout his career (Krauthammer 292) His purpose behind writing this article was to prove that nature is here to serve man and not the other way around. The logic of his argument derives from an unusual form of pathos: an appeal to a human's fondness for other humans over so-called luxurious aspects of the environment. This pathos coupled with appealing to people's fear and moralistic views are the rhetorical strategies he utilizes throughout his argument.…

Transcendentalism is a literary and philosophical movement of the early 1800’s. Transcendentalists operated with a sense that a new era was coming, they were critics of their modern society for its thoughtless traditionalism, and they advised people to find “an original relation to the universe” (Emerson). “The Transcendentalist adopts the whole connection of spiritual doctrine. He believes in miracle, in the perpetual openness of the human mind to new influx of light and power; he believes in inspiration, and in ecstasy”(Emerson). To do this people must live simply and make the best of their life situations while not passing judgments on others. Nature’s role in helping man find peace and happiness is the key to living a fulfilled life in harmony with the universe. Transcendentalist such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau firmly state that man’s relationship with nature are interdependent, and that in order for man to live a fulfilled life he must respect nature.…
As I have read for class these past two assignments, I have been forced to face an important distinction that I think is often overlooked by many environmental advocates (a group of people which I have been known to associate myself with). The problem I would like to address, or at least bring to our classes attention is the murkiness that surrounds the word "nature". We often find ourselves (I am included in this) using the word nature to mean something along the lines of all that is not human in our world/universe. I would argue that this is not the case, but rather that this limited definition of "nature" is actually only a piece of nature, as nature is indeed what is natural, I would posit that indeed this weak definition of nature is really an inappropriate synonym for the wild, while nature in its entirety would also include humanity.…
Environment Psychology and Theology Humans as Part of Nature AJ R Chun PhD Fresno Psychology Examiner Environmental Psychologist Theologist Nature: the inherent character or basic constitution of a person or thing, a creative and controlling force in the universe, an inner force or the sum of such forces in an individual, a kind or class usuallydistinguished by fundamental or essential characteristics , the physical constitution or drives of an organism, a spontaneous attitude, the external world in its entirety, humankind's original or natural condition, the genetically controlled qualities of an organism. What about humans themselves, are they part of nature?Most of us would conclude sooner or later that humans are part of nature.This exception was a secular man who explained that humans are above nature because we are on one of the top layers of the food chain. ³We eat the salmon. That to me seemsProbably « if you want to admit it or not, it is an act of a higher creature feeling that it has the right to eat the salmon.´ The rest of us gave various reasons why humans are part of nature. Mostmentioned was our dependence on natural resources like water and oxygen. Otherscalled humans part of nature because we form a part in the ³chain of being´. ³We aremade up out of all the elements that are found in nature.´ Some religious respondents regarded humans as nature because its creation needs the involvement of a ³higherpower´. In the words of a Muslim woman: ³Humans are a creation of God, they are anatural being.´ Two Buddhists clarify that it took the bringing together of many causes tocreate both nature and humans: ³The consequence of so many things together so that wehave human beings («). The ground and the mountain and the trees « There are many causes to make the ground there, the water there and the trees growing.´Although a large majority concluded that humans are part of nature, many of the laterresponses on this subject showed their doubts about the…
The relationship between people and nature is interdependent. Nature provides us with all kinds of resources which are indispensable to our existence. Without nature, people could not live. We need air, water, sunshine, food and so on. On the other hand, human also belong to the nature, nature also needs human. As a consequence, if we destroy the nature, in some extent, we will diminish ourselves.…

Environment plays a large role in every human’s life. Frequently we just don’t pay attention to all bad things we do to nature. Unfortunately, enviromental problem levels are increasing at an alarming rate and we should do everything we can to reduce it. The main reason why it is so important to protect the environment is that we should think not only about ourselves but about future generations as well. Nowadays, we have faced with such problems as pollution, global warming, overhunting and overfishing, deforestation,and many others. So, we have to do something to stop or at least prevent them.…

The root of earth destruction began when trees in forest were cut down. Tree is our main supplier of oxygen and they lessen the carbon dioxide in the environment that makes the earth cool. We are experiencing global warming because we are not a good steward of this earth. Cutting down trees irresponsibly and overfishing are some of the evidence that we abuse the earth. As a result, landslides, strong typhoons and abnormal weather condition are happening to us today. One of the evidence also of earth is the pollutants in the air and water that makes people sick of hard to heal disease such as cancer. We could see this abuse on earth but ironically we are not doing something about it. Yet the worst, we are focusing on economic growth to the point that we disregard the nature.…
In a world where kids are getting infected by the virus that is the dependency on technology at a younger and younger age the incorporation of nature into the public school curriculum is undoubtedly needed. The experience of having nature be greatly involved in my education since a young age has made me aware of all the benefits that this brings to the academic skills of children.As a young child from the ages of 0-8 I lived in a very rural part of Mexico where nature formed a huge part of our daily life and education.I may have not had the mental maturity to analyze the benefits that this would cause during that period in my life but now that I look back on it I realize that the experiences I had as a child have shaped who I am and my relationship with nature as well as enhanced certain academic skills.…
