How does man now relate to nature?

In the modern world, man’s attitude to nature is ambiguous. Intellectually, everyone understands that nature needs to be protected, because it is the cradle of our life. Without the environment, we cannot even take a breath of air. But in reality we observe the following: forests are mercilessly cut down, water is used wastefully, animals and plants are dying out as whole species. There are also positive trends: organizations are being created that fight for the preservation of the environment, and some sort of sorting of household waste is carried out.
