Buch Seite 75, Frage 5

There is an American Indian saying "`When you start to kill the land around you, you start to kill yourself"'. Explain what this means. Do you think this saying is correct?
This famous and very often quoted saying means, that if you demolish the nature around you, you will have to take the consequences. An example: If you pollute the air, you have to inhale the polluted air, which will cause several diseases. So I think, the verdict is correct.
