Why Should We Care About Nature?

Why should we care about nature?
Maybe because it’s one of the few things that have actually existed before us?
Or maybe because when life around us sits still, it continues to grow and prosper?
Or possibly because its just something that will never go away?
Well lets start off with this…..
What is nature you ask?
Well it could be looked at as just as the pattern of seasons
Or the never ending winter that continues to interfere with spring
Or the repetitive sunrise and sunset and continuous cycle of night and day
Depending on the way you look at it, I guess it could be more than just its external beauty or even its temporary pleasure it brings
And whether we like it or not
It’s constantly around us
But I guess if I were to be completely honest
I would have to admit that nature doesn’t really interest me
It hasn’t made my life better or worse nor something I think about on a daily basis just to spend some time “reflecting” on
But think about it,
What would our lives be without it?
Whether its believable or not, it would be completely different
No flowers to signal the start of spring
No green lawns that embrace the April showers
And there would be no such thing as a picture perfect place
So again, the same question is posed,
Why should we care about nature?
That’s why
