How we see our environment shapes our whole world. Most of us see everything as independent from one another. But the reality is that everything is part of one interconnected, interrelated whole. For example, a tree may appear isolated, but in fact it affects and is affected by everything in its environment - sunshine, rain, wind, birds, minerals, other plants and trees, you, me. The tree shapes the wind that blows around it; it is also shaped by that wind. Look at the relationship between the tree and its environment and you will see the future of the tree. Most of us are blind to this interconnectedness of everything. This is why we don't see the consequences of our actions. It is time for each of us to open our eyes and see the world as it really is - one complete whole where every cause has an effect.Two environmental issues that we find most pressing are deforesting and global warming.

我们对环境的看法决定着我们周围世界的环境。

大多数人认为万物是彼此孤立的。

但事实上，每一个个体都是一个息息相关、相互联系的整体的组成部分。

比如，一颗树看上去或许是孤立的，但它却对其周围环境中的一切——日光、雨水、风、鸟、矿物质、其它植物和树木、你、我等——施加影响，同时又处于环境的的影响之下。

一棵树会影响从它周围吹过的风；风同时又会影响这颗树的生长。

了解这棵树与其环境的关系，你就可以预见它的未来。

大多数人对万物之间的相关性视而不见。

正因为如此，我们就不了解我们的所作所为会造成的后果。

现在我们每个人都应该睁开双眼，看清这个世界的真实面貌——一个因果相循的完整集合体。

我们认为最严重的两个环境问题是森林砍伐和全球变暖。

由于大量砍伐，现在地球上的树木仅有一万年前的一半。

毁掉树木也就破坏了生态环境，因为树木可以维持表层土壤，保证干旱气候地带的降雨量，净化地下水，并将二氧化碳转化为氧气。

树木把水从地下带到地面，并让水蒸发到大气中。

随后这些蒸发气体又再化为雨水返回地面。

这对天然的干旱地区是至关重要的。

毁林地区的下风区域会因缺乏降雨来源而变为荒漠。
