We let the few dominate and exploit the many. Our relationship with nature is refelective of our relationship with ourself.
But the cultural focuson domination and exploitation is not biological. It’s not in our nature. The potential to dominate is. But so is the potential of cooperation and mutual aid.
Let’s try to rethink our society and behaviour to nature and each other and aim for the latter. For all our sake.
I’d argue that neither one stems from the other but that they are both manifestations of the same thing: our desire to dominate our environment to make our own lives (or the lives of those important to us) easier and/or safer.
