Humans may have no respect for nature but that doesn't mean we are not
a part of nature just a huge impact on it.

An anthropologist writing on another mailing list wrtoe that "...
human beings, and indeed human cultures, have developed as a part of
evolutionary processes. This is something that a fair proportion
of ecologists do not acknowledge. At my Ph.D. institution, I have
had ecologists tell me that humans ARE NOT part of nature!" I find
this statement remarkable, and would like to know whether it is
indeed true that "a fair proportion of ecologists" feel that "humans
ARE NOT part of nature". Comments on this would be welcome.
