We live in a world of interconnectedness. Every action we take changes the world around us, often in ways we cannot predict. Remove a top predator from an ecosystem and the whole thing shifts out of balance. Introduce harmful chemicals and an entire food webs suffers. Climate change has created shifts in breeding patterns, migration routes, populations densities, and habitat use. Before we harvest, drill, or spill, we must consider the ripples that those actions will create.
