If we have more of a spiritual or religious connection with the world as John Muir did would we be treating it so poorly? This video shows some of the beautiful places we have in this world and what we are turning them into today. 
Things that our generation could make connections with on a spiritual level in nature are now turning into polluted areas. In Whites writing he talks about how he used to love the places where he grew up and how it has changed so much since then. It is now an urbanized and has pollution in the streets. The talks about wars and the impacts they have had our planets, and that a war with canons causes erosion and deforestation, but a war with hydrogen bombs may alter genetics for all life on this planet.

The book I have been reading for this class has a good quote that goes along with this week’s material.

“ We have become as Gods, destroyer of worlds”  

-Miranda Cynova
