Q

Nature (‘first’ ‘second’ ‘third’)

A
  • First nature: perceives nature as a place that is pristine and untouched by humans. Human nature dichotomy. Connection to idea of “Eden”(paradise untouched by human sin). Conservation areas established as places where human disruptions are limited; nature protected from humans.
    • Second Nature: sees nature as a a resources; a place or thing that has items or things that are useful to humans (ie, soil, elements, minerals). Resources that have utility for people. Relationship to human labour; turning resources into something of higher value. Protect nature as it may offer some higher value (cancer cure in amazon)
    • Third Nature: Nature is a commodity; refers to nature in its entirety. Tourism to see nature that is perceived as beautiful, tourism generates money. Nature has benefits for humans in terms of health and wellness. Idea/dreams of isolation from regular human activity and living alone in nature.
