Ecology - A Way of Life
Since the first appearance of "civilised people" the earth’s environment is threatened in its beauty and species diversity. In Europe only a few forests with original associations of flora and fauna are left. The few remains are only preserved in very limited and often strictly protected refuges. It seems that most people think of this like: "That does not bother me, as long as my green garden remains." Well, I cannot help short sighted egoists. This site rather addresses fellows who have already heard of this phenomenon and are willing to whom an improvement of this situation seems worthwhile.
Some people think, this whole ecology talk would be about healthy nutrition, prevention of species diversity and prevention of the climatic collapse. Not really wrong but not really correct either. The actual goal of an environmental orientated living as I see it is the respect for life itself. Mankind will not survive the upcoming ten thousand years. So the real question is what we are doing with the remaining time. Maybe plant an apple sapling?
However, I don’t think it worthwhile to torture animals or destroy forests in order to make my own life somewhat more comfortable. That is what I call environmental awareness.
