Honorable Mention
The Human Nature Lab
DESCRIPTION
The mechanization of nature by humans is like a great experiment and the laboratory is nothing less than the whole world. Many dramatic consequences of this experiment we already see and feel every day. However, many consequences are not foreseeable at all today and will burden future generations. As long as humans existed as conscious beings the have lived surrounded by nature, utilizing technology, at first rudimentary and then more sophisticated. So there has always been a critical and increasingly complex triangular relationship between nature, humans, and technology. However, this relationship has no longer been in balance for years. Thus, human interaction with nature through technology must be completely redefined. AUTHOR
