Back in Eugene

O Parque Nacional, Chapada Diamantina
Antes de todo, qual parte da ecosistema eram humanos? Nunca mais humanos podem sobreviver num ambiente silvestre.

Lugares como Chapada Diamantina ainda são um secreto, uma delicia para nos desfrutar. Mesmo que adoro este lugar, quero que ninguém conheça porque nos iremos a destruir todo. Como é que pudermos inspirar a conservação sem destruir por amando bastante?


What part of the ecosystem did we fill, before there were too many of us? We really are useless beings, I feel humbled by this.

Some places, like Spencers' butte, Cougar hot springs or Mt. Pisgah were once wild but are now overloved by visitors. The wildness has been gone for a while already.

My inspiration to conserve something comes from the appreciation of it. If the overloved places like Mt. Pisgah are blocked to human use, humans may not gain the appreciation for that specific place that is so essential to the conservation of similar ecosystems. How can we best use this place as a sacrifice?
