THE HUMAN
PERSON AND
THE
ENVIRONMENT

Rya Ryzel M. Rabisanto

What is the Importance of
the Human Person and
the Environment?
Human's are dependent to their environment that
is already a fact accepted by many. It is nature that
provides us the food and shelter we need to survive.
However, what makes a human person important to
the environment around them is another question.
It is a person's job to take care of the environment,
but not because earth needs us to take care of it,
rather we need earth to sustain our needs. We use
our environment which ever way we can for our
survival as well as the development of human
society. Our environment does not necessarily need
us for it to continue existing, but it will not dissapear
with us around as long as we do not make an effort
to destroy it. In fact, if people contribute to taking
care of the environment, then earth could find itself
in a better shape.
