Some call me nature.
Others call me “Mother Nature.”
I've been here for over 4.5 billion years.
22,500 times longer than you.
I don't really need people. But people need me.
Yes, your future depends on me.
When I thrive, you thrive. When I falter, you falter. Or worse.
But I've been here for eons.
有人称我为大自然。
也有人叫我“大自然母亲”。
我在这里已经超过45亿年。
是你们人类存在时间的22500倍。
我真的不需要人类。但人类需要我。
是的,你的未来取决于我。
如果我繁盛,你们也将繁盛。如果我衰败,你们也会衰败或者更糟。
但我已经永世存在于此。
