Paragraph I Ecologist Dr. Barry Commoner says that ecology has not yet developed specific laws, as has physics. But suggests four generalizations that have resulted from ecological research on ecosystem. These might be considered as an informal set of laws of ecology. The four generalizations are 1 Everything is connected to everything. This means, everything plays a part in the endless cycles of ecosystem. 2 Everything must go somewhere. This implies that there is no such thing as waste in nature. What is given off by one organism as “waste” is taken up by another organism as food. 3 Nature knows best. The explains the changes having occurred over billions of years, which have made up the delicately balance ecosystem that we have today. For every organic substance produced by a living organism, nature has provided an enzyme capable of breaking down that substance. Nature takes care of all natural materials, both organic and inorganic. 4 There is not such thing as “a free lunch”, meaning that all life in nature lives at the expense of some other life.
