 The sequence of events that have been occurring on the planet, according to Richard Nash, is leading to the world's demise.We have been desecrating this planet for years. Humans have been working this planet to its core and people don't realize the catastrophes that are in the planet's future. If mankind continues to neglect the plant by overpopulating Earth and overproduce products the future will not be too good for anyone; but, we can save our Earth by changing our ways and becoming more environmentally literate and ecoliterate. The environmental crisis that is at hand has contributed to an economic crisis as well. 40 years ago the ratio of rich to poor was 44:1, which has now nearly doubled to the ratio of 72:1. The world is becoming greedier than ever for all of the mundane things that are produced now a days. What are we going to do about this? Nash mentions a school known as the "Zoo School" which teaches students the basic subjects such as math and science, as well as helps to articulate the harm that humans have brought to planet along with all of its inhabitants. If more schools and programs such as the Zoo School were available, humans will be more knowledgeable of how to be good neighbors to the environment.
