THE DISTNACE

*/10
In the modern world, the chasm that separates humanity from the natural world has grown ever wider. Our daily lives, shaped by technology and urbanization, have distanced us from the ecosystems that once sustained us. This disconnection from nature carries profound implications for our physical and mental well-being, the environment, and our sense of belonging in the world.
Concrete Jungle: Our cities have become concrete jungles, where skyscrapers loom over us, and green spaces dwindle.
Urbanization: The rapid expansion of cities has driven people further away from the natural world.
Screens and Virtual Realities: Our lives are increasingly mediated through screens, isolating us from the physical world.
Nature as a Resource: We've come to view nature as a resource to exploit, rather than a partner to coexist with.
Loss of Wilderness: Natural habitats are shrinking, leading to a loss of wilderness and biodiversity.
