Our environment is what surrounds us in our day-to-day lives, whether we are walking down the street or sitting idle in a chair. Nature is part of our environment and is made up of the plants and animals that offer us an escape from man’s cold world. We, as humans, are always affecting our environment and nature, whether it is in a positive way or destructive way. In our environment we deal with certain materialistic or superficial issues, where in nature you find these certain dwellings to be unnecessary. We ask ourselves what we can do to conserve our natural settings, yet we spend what we have on new possessions repeatedly and build up to our desired urban monster without consideration for what parts of nature we are unsettling. Although, with these things acknowledged, there are certain people making the initiative to exchange our negative ways with more environmentally conscious approaches to living.
