    I always thought it was a little arrogant of us humans to assume if we created something, or cause something to happen, that it isn’t considered part of the natural world. Like, of course it is. As you said, anthills are natural, beaver dams are natural, so skyscrapers are just as natural as a bird’s nest.

      Yeah, we like to pretend we’re separate from nature. Then we get surprised when our actions destroy our environment.
