Humankind has been dealing with the "nature problem" with too anthropocentricity in the head. We say we must take care of mother nature but how can we protect something that is more powerful, profoundly bigger and primordial than our puny humanity? All the things we can do to preserve nature are in fact acts for self-preservation because face to face with nature's force, we are fragile leaves battling out a tornado. Nature made the subcontinent of India crash against the Asian mainland to produce the Himalayan range, nature is spreading the ocean floors, nature is making new islands and is moving the plate tectonics from beneath our feet. It has been keeping winds and tides and currents in clockwork precision. We don't protect nature, we are merely prolonging our shelf-life as the current dominant species. In the end, it is not in any way subservient to us. But we are subjects to it as long as we live.
However, with the rate we are changing our present landscape with our irresponsible technology and pollution, it is as if we are saying that we just can't wait for it to expel our chiefdom and hasten our doom. Stronger than dinosaurs, are we?
