in the past‚ it still occurred in the century I know best‚ the twentith century‚ and it is still occurring to this very present day. The nature of mankind is corrupt‚ it always has been and it always will be. I believe that this is what will happen because based on the evidence I have read‚ heard‚ and watched on television‚ the nature of mankind is bad. Mankind led a hard life‚ men and women worked long‚ hard hours out in the fields‚ just so that they would be able to survive

James O’Connor: Selling Nature Let’s start by posing a couple of questions. First‚ what is humanity’s relationship to nature? Second‚ what is capitalism?

Electricity‚ what a wonderful advancement that was invented throughout history. If there wasn’t electricity we wouldn’t be able to power our cars‚ turn on our stoves‚ plug our phone chargers into the wall socket or even be able to turn on our artificial light when it’s dark outdoors.

and cleanse of the air that hits my face. I watch as the waves roar and crash time after time‚ yet no wave is the same. Than when I see the seagulls flock their wings and head towards the pier I feel a ray of warmth‚ the immense sun has awoken. Nature has given me the privilege to experience such beauty though not many can see it the way I do.
