The recently held Healthy Parks Healthy People Congress in Melbourne Australia also featured the relationship of the environment and nature with a focus more on the benefits of nature on human physical and mental health. It was an interesting Congress in that the plenary addresses were mostly medical professionals, each pointing out the importance of nature. The importance of intact nature to human development and well-being was made quite clear.

I am very interested in your blog and the connection of the ecosystem and human health. Reductionist thinking leads one down the road to the fact that there is no connection between the whole of anything. Biodiversity leads one down the other road that all things are related and the wheel is the network of life. What we do to the network of life we do to ourselves. Our nonprofit Happy Tonics, Inc. teaches what we do to the monarch butterfly, we do to ourselves. The butterfly is the teacher and shows us that destruction of the environment and changing our food to monoculture and genetic engineering will impact animals, pollinators and ourselves.

Thank you for pointing this out so clearly and so elequently in Sick environmenta, sick people.
