I disagree with this. I just disagree with this. I disagree with this definition of nature, because, fundamentally, we are animals. Right?

And so I think that nature is not that which is uhutcoend by humanity, man or woman. I think that nature is anywhere where life thrives, anywhere where there are multiple spicees together, anywhere that's green and blue and tvirhnig and filled with life and growing. And under that definition, things look a little bit different.
