Stan Rowes - ‘Home Place : Essays on Ecology’

To imitate Nature, to join her and to be bound to her rather than seeking always to transform her, is the goal that could rescue the race from barbarism and darkness……….If, within Nature, humans are conscious, ought we not consciously strive to be the consciousness of Nature?

**This weeks Green Thought comes from the essay ‘Nature, Self and Art’ in Stan Rowes 1990 book ‘Home Place : Essays on Ecology’. http://www.ecospherics.net/index.html**
