As humans are constantly expanding their boundaries, we can see the depletion of nature and the impacts it is having on the resources accessible via such natures.

  What I found interesting was Rachel Carson’s description of the ebb and flow of the sea touching the land and retracting, having an indefinable boundary and never being at rest.

  I drew a small link to Marginal Worlds’ conclusion of their close reading as it poses the question of the brook really being cemented over and that the guilt will continue to manifest through human activities such as those that cause climate change. This shows nature’s unrest and that dominating it results in a struggle with negativity and boundaries. Furthermore, nature also takes on many different forms such as plants.
