Island Civilization Summary

In the article "Island Civilization: A vision for human occupancy of earth in the fourth millennium" a very good point was made about how humans are not treating the earth with respect, however our generation still has a chance to turn the earth from cancerous to healthy.

At one point in our lives as human beings we began to draw mental lines between ourselves and nature. This is something that has gradually been increasing throughout their years. Most people do not seem to notice all of these constant changes simply because we are used to the type of world we live in now. I believe that in order for somebody to understand what's happening these negative changes need to affect us as individuals. For example, many people don't realize cutting down trees to build businesses will eventually cause the world to be unsustainable. Nature is something very necessary. "Wilderness" in old English was something that had its own will, just like you mentioned in paragraph three. The Wild is a place where wild undomesticated animals should be allowed to roam

Which is good because this means more and more people will start to understand what's happening in today's world. For example, Climate change, it now seems to be at least partially human-induced, meaning we as humans have the ability to make some sort of difference. In my opinion it should not be very difficult to help the world and make it a better place. We have to understand that if we do not take care of our world than no one else will, because it is our home, no one else's. The problem is that we have to learn to use technology responsibly. Technology is not necessarily a problem, it is essentially a neutral resource that can help us in many ways, what we do with it is the problem. I believe we as human beings of this earth should learn and use as many possible resources available to us, to protect what we want to coexist with for the long
