Economics and the environment

I was examining the crisis of the environment from the broader economic perspective. I was writing about our irresponsibility. We often don't understand that natural resources are not inexhaustible and that we have to realize that exhausting of natural resources can create huge problems. We risk natural disasters- floods, acid rains, erosion of soils, global warming and other ones- so we should be more careful about our environment.
I chose this topic because I am quite interested in environment and also because I live in the country and every day I can see the consequences of the human activity all around me, like great deforestation or soil erosion.
