In Biology, the properties of living things must respond to environment and be able to evolve. A seed is capable of providing life to many new individual plants, however individuals don’t evolve. The process of life involves many individuals to come together and continue to survive. Even the smallest unit of life, the cell, is complex and works more efficiently in greater numbers. If all the human individuals came together, we would posses the potential to work more efficiently in our environment too.

Well, as discussed in Aldo Leopold’s, A Sand County Almanac, the first ethic dealt with the relation between the individuals and society. The integration of democracy and social organization of the individual is important, but doesn’t mean entailing privileges without obligations (Leopold, 1948). There has to be stronger obligations between the land and individuals, or blame tied with laziness will continue to cycle through the political system.

Humans have grown accustom to forgetting we are a part of nature too. Author of On Environmental Communication,George Lakoff, brings attention to the misleading image of “environment” and the common conception of humans being separate from the environment. The reality is individuals need nature because it nurtures us and without we wouldn’t exist (Lakoff, 2010). We must stop the blame and “squabbles between different factions of humanism” for the continuance of our future(Foreman,
