Man searched out, built shelters – houses in order to be protected from wild animals and natural phenomena. It was one of his needs for survival. Nowadays, humans live in a sterile environment he made and eliminates any unwanted "invader" away from his residence (by using insecticidal sprays, antibacterial liquids, etc.). My concern is whether this environment which we have built in order for it to ''protect'' us and make us feel safe, is in fact taking us away from the natural world and we end up living in isolation from the environment which we came from.
