It’s no myth.

Modern people just don’t get nature. Scientists can speak all they want about ‘nature deficit disorder’ and other mumbo-jumbo, but at the heart of it, it really is simple. We just don’t believe that we need nature anymore.

The very act of naming it, of categorizing it, separates us. First Nations people speak of life as a whole, one single, cohesive unit without parallel. Why don’t we?
