I’m saying that humans have already played a role in this environment and it has adapted to it. We are part of nature, we’re literally animals and we are part of the ecology of any environment we live in. If we weren’t part of it then we’d be an invasive species (and in industrial ways we are which is a whole other topic). But when it comes lands that have been hunted by humans for ages and not industrialized we are a part of that system and hunting those lands helps preserve the balance there. There’s a reason hunting is heavily regulated, it’s to ensure we’re doing the balance thing and not the destruction thing.
It’s exhausting when people look at this as a trope, it just highlights human exceptionalism and your lack of empathy for nature even though you think you have it. The minute you take humans out of an ecosystem they are naturally a part of you actually increase the problem in a variety of ways.
I have sympathy for your lack of understanding here though, modern life does a great job of convincing us we aren’t part of nature, and when you think this way it makes it easy to continue the destruction while we bemoan our evil. It’s hypocritical and shallow in its logic.
Downvote me all you want, I don’t care I just hope I have provided something to consider when it comes to nature and humanity’s role in that nature. It’s a deeply complex issue and it’s worth consideration.
lol this trope again “it will be bad for nature if nature is allowed to be natural. Only humans can help and only by killing animals”
I’m not saying that.
