Chapter 1. Philosophy and Fundamental concepts
In this chapter, we discussed the five fundamental concepts of environmental geology: human population growth, sustainability, systems and change, hazardous Earth processes, and scientific knowledge and values.
One interesting analogy for Earth is the Gaia hypothesis, which proposes that living organisms interact with their inorganic surroundings to form a synergistic, self-regulating system that helps maintain and sustain conditions for life on the planet.
Now my question is Do you think the Earth is a living organism? Why or why not?
