The Wave of the Future: Cognizance of the Environmental Insubstantiality in the Face of Human Intrusion in Margaret Atwood’s Oryx and Crake, and The Year of The Flood
Abstract
A fragile environment is prone to dangers caused by mankind, it is undeniably perplexing to know the upsurge in population that leads to the dearth and privation of resources. Under supplied resources intensify the need in man and incite him to discover alternatives to sustain his livelihood. Sustainability aims to bring steadiness in both anthropoids and nature. Barry Commoner in Closing Circle states the interdependency of lives with the ecosystem. All the networks in the web of life are vital, when one of the connections is disturbed the entire web of life is prone to threat leading to catastrophe which leads to annihilation and death. Harmony could be anticipated when both coexist together and are limited in their terrains without bewildering the existence of the other. Unfortunately, that is not the possibility in today’s world, the whole ecosystem is becoming unusual by the deeds of men who strive to support their survival. Human’s interventions have altered the whole functionality of nature and have created a faux inhabitation, forcing humans to believe that the sceptre has passed from nature to mechanization.A fragile environment is prone to dangers caused by mankind, it is undeniably perplexing to know the upsurge in population that leads to the dearth and privation of resources.
