CoachNature is the world of living things and their surroundings: meadows, forests, ponds, seas — and the air, water and soil they depend on. The surroundings a living thing depends on are called its environment.

Example 13.2 (Everything is somebody’s home)
A rotting log in the forest looks like rubbish — it is a palace: beetles under the bark, woodlice beneath, moss on top, a hedgehog wintering in the hollow. Kick it apart for fun and four households lose their home. In nature, almost everything is somebody’s home, food, or shelter.
Example 13.5 (The bottle cap)
A dropped plastic cap is nothing to us and stays in the meadow for many, many years — long enough for grown-ups to have children who find the same cap. Nature has no dustbin lorry: whatever we leave, stays.
