Historically, humans and nature coexisted until people began to gather in groups. In time, these small villages developed into our major cities. As civilisations began to draw their boundaries, humans began to claim the land and the natural environment as evidence of their social power and control. As a result, we became alienated from mother nature instead of coexisting with her. It is our desire to be in control. Naturalisation examines the many ways in which human intervention has negatively impacted our ecosystem.
