2. Can you explain this statement "The more simple and authentic that we are able to keep the wilderness environments, the more it allows for a pure experience".?

3. One argument Abbey ( Book of Abbeys, Desert Solitaire) seems to be making about wilderness -- though he doesn't come right out and say it, rather, it's implied -- is that our biological make-up is tied intimately to wilderness. Can you explain this statement? (300 word counts)

The Cleaner air and water, cleaner surroundings, no artificial structures, Just Nature. Less human activities leads to less interference of humans with the nature and natural phenomenon. More originality and authenticity over Artificial and man-made resources.

One argument Abbey ( Book of Abbeys, Desert Solitaire) seems to be making about wilderness is that our biological make-up is tied intimately to wilderness. Human Activities degrades the biodiversity causing extinction, fragmenting or destroying habitats, communities, genes while wilderness holds and connects together life and biological systems within its boundaries. Wilderness preserves species and their genetic traits leading to maintenance of human's and earth's evolutionary potential. Thus proving, Biological make up is tied intimately to wilderness.
