Where, what, and how we observe nature is inherently subjective. This subjectivity can blur the lines between human and natural systems, creating a more expansive and inclusive natural history. Nature is not confined to wild and protected places, but rather surrounds us in our everyday lives. From backyards to city parks, these spaces provide opportunities for all of us to foster a deep appreciation and love for nature. I will share how I have redefined nature, highlight how everyday interactions with nearby nature can advance wellbeing and how small acts of conservation demonstrate a universal love for the natural world.
