Why are some people so negative toward nature?

Question

Examples: some people want trees cut down when trees help provide us with oxygen.

people want to kill cats that come on their properties when they help keep mice and other rodents out of their house.

people keep using 10 times more water they are supposed to when there is a drought in their area....what happens when their is no water left?

the list can go on....im just wondering why some people are like this. are the selfish?

Answer 1

I have no concrete answers but this same question has bothered me for years.

Answer 2

do you really have to ask??

it's like asking why do some people drive aggresivly, or why do some people shoplift??

a lot of people are selfish and don't care about their impact on the rest of the world

Answer 3

because some of them think that their God(s) could create everything for them if they pray.

so they don't care about this planet, our only home.

they just care about their imaginary home called heaven.

Answer 4

I don't trust people who don't like animals.  It makes me wonder what they really think of people.

Answer 5

Either people start stepping up to do something about all of this or the human race may start to face many deaths.

Answer 6

Lack of consequences and no sense of responsibility.  Let 'em go without shade, rolling over on mice in their sleep and using the same water to flush over and over in a roach infested one bedroom efficiency for a week!  

You should look at these guys with a sad smile, walk up and squeeze their balls, and roll your fingertips, and just ask them over and over...'Why?'

But I digress.

Answer 7

I honestly think that it has a lot to do with the fact that Nature bites and stings.  

It's all about mosquitoes.
