Being the product of nature itself, to what extent are products of human race natural/unnatural.
First example that comes to my mind is plastic. Since nature cannot recycle it, and since it is made by humans, it is considered unnatural. In the same time, many things made by man can be considered natural, like primitive homes made of wood. Many species including insects, birds, and mammals, also make homes of some kind, and those are, justifiably, considered natural. Where does one draw distinction, if it really exists, between 'natural' and 'unnatural' things. Well, based on these examples, I could define this distinction in recyclable terms. But then again, do I really know what does it mean recyclable. I know it has something to do with bacteria in earth being able to disintegrate a product in question. This is a philosophical question. It is posted in the wrong category! Like with 'pure' nature which has its disasters, human products can also be disasters, as can some humans themselves.
