Abstract: | Humans have always been concerned about the environment and their role in it. However, this concern varies greatly amongst communities because of the wide spectrum of cultures, attitudes, values and beliefs. Thus, different human communities have treated the Earth in various ways: ranging from awe and respect to ruthless exploitation. In my opinion, our perception of Earth as our home, was the most important determining factor that influenced our concern for the environment. As the concept of a global village evolved, awareness of the dreary state of the environment and the far reaching effects of our activities emerged. This prepared the groundwork for a global effort to remedy the situation in order to ensure a future for all humanity. |
