commoner's law of ecology


In the early 1970 , ecologist Barry Commoner wrote ''the closing circle'' , in which he discussed the rapid growth of industry and technology and the persistent effect on all forms of life. he suggested that we can reduce the negative effect by sensitizing , informing and educating ourselves about our connection to the natural world . Commoner summarized the basic of ecology into what he termed '' law of ecology". others have also used this idea to develop simple statement that help us understand and remember our connection to nature. here are five laws of ecology

  1. EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED TO EVERYTHING
  2. EVERYTHING HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE ORE THERE IS NO SUCH PLACE AS AWAY
  3. EVERYTHING IS ALWAYS CHANGING
  4. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS FREE LUNCH
  5. EVERYTHING HAS LIMIT
