Humans have leared to coexist with both the mountains and the sea, and this can be seen in the way the little towns are built directly into the rocks. We all use the environment to survive, so it is important to treat the earth kindly and with respect so that its resources last for future generations.
The sea can be harmed by pollution, and the mountains can be harmed by erosion. Pollution is always a problem, but Italy has a very robust recycling program as well as trash pick-up services. Like people in many countries, the Italians believe that it is important not to litter and to try to recycle and reuse the things around you. The mountains can become naturally eroded from the wind and the water, and it is important to stay on trails when in natural spaces, to prevent erosion from compacted soil. We are not worried about the sea and mountains here.
