Harmony Between Man and Nature Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.As we gather here today to discu the topic: harmony between man and nature, let me tell you my fascination for nature first.During my childhood, I was lucky enough to be with nature so closely because I was raised in the countryside in south China.Everything to do with nature could lighten my eyes and catch my attention: the immense green field, the soft soil with the smell of fresh gra, the flying bees and butterflies, the endle drizzle and so on.Wandering along the river, I could feel the inner peace nature conveyed to me.I have never got such an experience in Beijing, a tremendous city, a crystal of human development.Living in city, people are further from nature and the initial peace as time goes by.It is partly because we forget the old saying Zhuangzi told us, ”heaven and man combine into one”, in which “heaven” means nature and “combine into one” means harmony between man and nature.Sages clarified the relationship between man and nature and pointed out the ultimate pursuit we should strive for early at the pre-Qin period, however, today, a time when human civilization is highly developed, we are deviating from it.We get rock to build skyscrapers, we cut trees to make paper and furniture, we dig coal to generate electricity and we extract oil to run cars.We exhaust poisonous gases into air, we pour polluted water into rivers and we bury thousands of tons of rubbish under the ground.True, man has the power to change nature, but man should know the limitation as well.The more we take from nature, the more we force nature to endure for us, the more we are hurting it.Nature is generous, but can be unruly too.As long as we meet the bound which nature cannot burden anymore, we will be revenged.In face of powerful earthquake, flood, rainstorm and drought, man is fragile.Looking back to ancient China, people used simple tools and led a simple life.They got up at sunrise and got rest at sunset.Man kept a harmonious relationship with nature.Definitely, we are not going to go back to old times.But we’d better hold a right attitude towards the relationship between man and nature to pursue the “heaven and man combine into one”.Actions speak louder.Cooperation and communication among governments, use of environmental-friendly techniques by companies, little changes of lifestyle in every one’s daily life can all make a huge difference in the near future.We are bound to achieve the oldest pursuit about man and nature.
