People’s attitude toward their environment has varied with time, from fear and submission to active protection. In a country as Colombia, a theoretical equilibrium has been reached through environmental law: rational use of the natural milieu, using resources but respecting restrictions. However much remains to be done to obtain a truly “natural risk culture”, particularly with respect to a sufficient knowledge of landscape dynamics after human intervention. This knowledge is indispensable, since mankind. presently facing the possibility of a global change on a short basis. Systematic monitoring of changes in land use and natural or modified surface or subsurface processes is thus necessary to establish the presence of global change. Previous strategies and a serious effort to foster related educational programs should be organised at regional and national scales in order to face the problems that the planet is suffering. |
