Different groups fight for their interests and their positions in relation to social systems. Each group seeks an epistemology related to their group, to change the dominant ones, to adapt to their specificities. But they rarely, if ever, worry about obeying natural laws.
Prevention is an action that aims to reduce future risks of harmful actions. For example, if there is care for nature, then there is an increase in the water system both in the soil and in the air, and so leaves, branches, and anything else tend to stay moist when they are on the ground.
This makes it extremely difficult for any fire to occur, as the water concentration in the region tends to extinguish it, and even prevents any fire system from starting.
However, devastation tends to reduce the water system of the environment, and in this dry system, the action of carbon reacting with oxygen, generating combustion, is extremely facilitated. This creates a large field of possibilities for a fire to start. Prevention is always better than the consequences. Because once the consequences occur, the damage is usually exorbitant, but the cost of prevention is extremely lower.
This can be seen as an example, in the health system, preventing diseases is extremely cheaper than solving a health problem, such as cancer. Treating cancer is extremely expensive, and the cost of preventing cancer is much cheaper.
The same is true of ecology. The problem is that the cost falls on future generations. For a long time, people have been destroying nature and depleting its reserves, living a life full of luxury and waste. People enjoy the pleasures, but the costs will be paid, and are already being paid by young people, who are receiving the planet in good condition. And all the costs, which are much more expensive than prevention, will fall on this and future generations.
Therefore, there are no human rights without prevention, because what is being done is seeking the destruction of human beings of future generations.
When there is a lack of basic systems, the law determined for survival begins to return to being the law of the strongest, so governments tend to become authoritarian to control the dissatisfied population, with this fights, wars, and all concepts of human rights are annulled by the law of the strongest.
Thus, if a group seeks its rights, but does not fight for the rights of nature, it will lose its acquired rights, as the law of the strongest will return, as it does not really care about the rights of nature.
