		<description><![CDATA[Sloep and Van Dam-Mieras (1995) reveal why the natural environment is so important for all life on Earth. For all organisms, it is the source of energy and raw materials for growth, reproduction and development. And it is the transfer of energy and (re)cycling of matter that keeps the biosphere machinery running. However, they warn [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hartmann (2001) reveals how we humans lived on recent sunlight energy before the discovery of the 300-million-years-old deposits of ancient sunlight energy in the form of coal and then oil. This discovery led to increased production of human food, causing the human population to rise, initially gradually and then sharply. The problem is, these non-renewable [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to Maiteny (1999), the dominant materialistic-consumerist mythology is seemingly inadequate in helping us achieve wellbeing and is also causing social and ecological disintegration, threatening our long-term survival as a species. He argues that, for human wellbeing and sustainability, we must learn about the relationship in our lives between the outer (ecological and social) worlds [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Arguing that the current global economy driven by conventional economics is not sustainable, Prugh et al (2000) show that running a sustainable economy requires three house rules – conserve resources, protect ecological services and conserve Earth’s waste-absorption capacity. Turning to ecological economics, they emphasise that, since no subsystem can outgrow its host, the global economy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When compared with Western worldviews and knowledge, non-Western indigenous counterparts seem to possess more potential for human sustainability due to their spatial orientation as opposed to the Western temporal orientation. Turning to Native American culture, Pierotti and Wildcat (1999) reveal two sustainability themes that emerge in their cultural stories, namely connectedness and relatedness. These themes [...]]]></description>

He, however, cautions that there are challenges to be met, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pearce (2009) describes a new theory, dubbed the ‘biotic pump,’ which claims that forests create winds that pump moisture across continents. Developed by two Russian meteorologists, this theory awards the lush tropical forests, known as the planet’s lungs, a new title – the ‘planet’s heart.’ According to this theory, even localised deforestation near coasts can [...]]]></description>

&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;
Nature, with equal mind,
Sees all her sons at play;
Sees man control the wind, 
The wind sweep man away.

Matthew Arnold


I think I shall never see,
A poem lovely as a tree.

Joyce Kilmer (1886-1918)


Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
