Question

Explain humanisation of nature with the help of a real-life example.

Answer 1

1. As time progresses, individuals start to comprehend their surroundings and the laws of nature. With social and cultural development, humans develop better and more efficient technology. They move from a state of necessity to a state of freedom.
2. They create possibilities with the resources obtained from the environment. Human activities create a cultural landscape.
3. The imprints of human activities are created everywhere; health resorts on highlands, huge urban sprawls, fields, orchards and pastures in plains and rolling hills, ports on the coasts, oceanic routes on the oceanic surface and satellites in space. The earlier scholars termed this possibilism.
4. Nature provides opportunities and human beings make use of these and slowly nature gets humanized and starts bearing the imprints of human endeavour.
