The Four Laws Of Ecology

Tulisan di bawah ini cuma repost dari status FB junior gw di kampus. Anak biologi, anak ekologi lebih tepatnya. Sekedar informasi, ekologi adalah cabang ilmu biologi yang menurut gw paling menarik, walaupun gw tidak mendalaminya. Dibawah ini adalah tentang The Four Laws of Ecology yang diformulasikan oleh Barry Commoner:

The Four Laws Of Ecology:

1) Everything is connected to everything else - humans and other species are connected/dependant on a number of other species.

2) Everything must go somewhere - no matter what you do, and no matter what you use, it has to go somewhere. For example, when you burn wood, it doesn't disappear, it turns into smoke which rises into the air, and ash, which falls back down to the earth.

3) Nature knows best - Like it says, nature knows best. As much as you think it might help a place by repainting it, you are submitting the fumes into the air and into your lungs. Why not put siding on it?

4) There is no such thing as a free lunch - Everything you do, must have a reson behind it. For example, a class pizza party. In order to win the party, you have to fill out a survey, and submit it back to your teacher. This law basically means you have to do something in order to get something in return.

Silahkan direfleksikan sendiri ya maknanya dalam kehidupan.
