More Changeable Biophysical Conditions

While all biophysical conditions are subject to the laws and principles described above as fixed, we can identify a category of biological and physical conditions that not only are more changeable, but also that do change more rapidly relative to others. They span a wide range of temporal and spatial scales, from the changing scenery of human history to the moment-to-moment molecular and cellular changes happening in atmospheres and organisms. Among those, some are readily observable (e.g., landscapes, buildings, technologies), while others are perceptible only via observational and measurement tools (e.g., pollution, population characteristics, organismal processes). Together, they comprise the more transient dimension of the biophysical medium of human life. With the examples below, we’ll practice the skill of noticing these conditions in our own lives.
