过度消费自然的社会后果

The Social Consequences of Excessive Consumption of Nature

自然变化是自发选择能量消耗最少的途径。自然界惯常行程是不引起附加能量消耗的过程,人的技术活动都是对惯常行程的改变,都以消费能量为代价。劳动是人与自然之间的物质交换过程,人们从自然界获取天然自然物,遗弃给自然界的是人工自然物。天然自然物转化为人工自然物是非惯常行程,需要消耗能量。人类对自然的改造与利用是对自然的双重消费。劳动还是人与人之间的活动交换,这种交换使人们不断产生新的物欲。人的无止境的物欲与自然界的有限物源的矛盾愈演愈烈。对自然的过度消费是社会不和谐的重要根源。一定要节制对自然的消费,纳米技术可能根本改变我们对自然的消费形式与数量。

Natural changes are usually spontaneous and choose the least approach to cut down energy consumption. The usual route in nature is not to cause the process of additional energy consumption. All the people＇s technological activities change the usual route in nature at the price of consuming energy. Working is the material exchange process between human beings and the nature and the people gain natural things from the nature, leaving behind artificial things to nature. Natural things are translated into artificial things, which is an unusual route and needs the consumption of energy. Reforming nature and using nature is a dual consumption in nature. Working is still a kind of activity exchanges between persons and persons, causing people to have the new material desire unceasingly. The conflict between the endless desire and the nature of the limited sources is intensified. Excessive consumption of natural is a major source of disharmonious society. People should control the consumption of natural resources; nanoteehnology may change their consumption form of nature and its quantity.
