All organisms influence their environments: snapshots of contemporary ecology, humans as ecological beings; autecology of our species. Synecology = refers to the study of the area where all the species and the interactions are analyzed: spaceship management. We are trying to make sure that our projections through space continues: the challenges of environmental management. We have obligations as citizens to be increasingly in tuned with our environmental impacts. Can maintain environment that can exclude other species. The presence of any species, whether it taking resources or space, may exclude other species somehow through that competitive pressure: for own species.
