contact
Contact with nature is a term used by some scientists to refer to the biological, cultural, and spiritual interaction that humans have with their environment.Background In the 1800s, German biologist Ernst Haeckel (1834–1919) suggested that the relationship between humans and nature is one of mutual aid.Haeckel's biogenetic law suggests that an organism's form is established by its environment. In his general biology of 1914, Karl Vogt (1871–1951) developed the idea that nature was a collective life force, a biotic community. Other biologists who espoused similar ideas were Haeckel, Arthur Schopenhauer, Thomas Huxley, and Ernst Haeckel. Haeckel's and Schopenhauer's ideas were incorporated into the theory of biophilia by E.O. Wilson in his 1964 book, On Human Nature. A.S. Romer and N.I. Miner (1991) argued that the concept of nature that the 19th-century biologists espoused is now part of our culture and our consciousness. In an article published in the journal Environmental Values, they suggest that "an awareness of the presence of the environment has become second nature to most people and that, consequently, the environment has become part of the everyday texture of human activity."History In the 19th century, science moved away from the ideal of absolute, unchanging truth. The ideal of science as a search for absolute truth was replaced with an interest in understanding. However, a common notion of the scientific process was that scientists observed something that they previously did not observe and then they made a measurement that was different from the one before. This process allowed science to advance. One of the areas where scientists felt that they were observing a change was with regards to the nature of nature. The idea that nature is unchanging has been replaced by the idea that nature is in a process of change. In other words, what was once unseen is now observed. However, this observed change is not seen as having been brought about by science, but by nature.In an 1857 article, Henry David Thoreau pointed out that humans have always had an awareness of the environment, and that our relationship with nature has always been part of our culture. Today, we are beginning to reflect on our relationship with nature and our impact on it.In the last few decades, there has been an interest in natural contact.Research areas
Ecology Humans have always had an interest in observing nature. Early explorers and explorers of the 17th century wrote journals that detailed their observations. Even if they were just simple observations, like in the journal of an explorer who recorded the day they arrived in a new land or an exploration of the coast of India that recorded the different species of animals he saw, these observations were a record of the environment. Other early explorers observed nature but did not record their observations because they did not think it was important enough to write about. Later explorers recorded their observations in books. Today, nature observations are made through many different methods such as photography, sound, and video.In recent years, ecologists have used natural observation as a way to learn more about how nature functions. For example, biologists have used nature observation to understand the behavior of birds and insects. By observing these animals in their natural environment, biologists have been able to learn about the environment in which the animals live. One of the earliest examples of using natural observation to study the environment is E.O. Wilson's book, On Human Nature. In a different way, researchers have used observations to understand why people would interact with nature. For example, researchers have studied why people who live in rural communities choose to work in the fields. These studies have been used to explain how rural communities function and how they have adapted. Researchers have also studied why city dwellers choose to spend time in the countryside. A study that shows how we connect to the environment is John Elsner's study of the experience of nature in the built environment. In his 1997 study, Elsner discusses the experience of nature in our homes. He points out that the home is not just a physical space, but it is also a space of memory. In other words, the home is a place to remember the past and learn about the future. In his study, Elsner points out that the environment around us is important to us because it is part of who we are. It is a place that we remember because it shapes our memories and it also shapes our future. It is a place where we are able to think about and find solutions to our problems. It is a place that we live in and with. In addition, some ecologists have studied the impact humans have on the environment. One example is the work of
