"Saving Nature, But Only for man"-Charles Krauthammer

I would raise up both my hands for it.

Civilization is a process that destroy nature in order to cater human needs. Its motive is to build an environment that more comfortable for man. Human work hard for centuries to achieve that goal. Sarcastically, it also build an environment that not suitable for human at the same time. Polluted air, polluted water, polluted land, chemical composed food, climate change , and ozone depletion are typical examples.

Therefore, somebody realized it and shout out: " Hey, we can't let this continue; we must save the world! ". So, man began to study what is wrong. Since then, man created a new word-'recycle'. Recycling is recognized as a symbol of environmental friendly action. But is it just because of we want to preserve virgin forest? The answer is no. A simple answer is the cost of recycling is much more cheaper than if we produce the same thing from the raw material. It is a definite result from economic. Also, how many people are using solar power water heater which is more environmentally friendlier? You know the answer, since solar power heater is expensive.


After being educated, most people would agree 'green' is good and essential. But they will only practice it if and only if convenient and economical benefit.
