They have led their lives in a dynamic environment, which works without interfering with the homeostatic balance in the earth. However; four industrial revolution from the 19 century to today and globalization has cause that developing technology, quest of countries increasing their production for markets, policies based on profits henceforward, have brought with global scale changes. The term globalization has become influential (compression and restriction of place, elimination of the boundaries, becoming similar etc.). 800 million people on earth go to bed hungry every day. It is estimated that 11 million people worldwide die each year from hunger or malnutrition. Homo economicus, with modern lifestyle has brought fast and excessive consumption. By the way, it has become very difficult to distinguish between the concepts of needs and excision . On the other hand, the most optimistic effort to be made is conservational precautions for nature, so this will contribute in terms of future generations immeasurably to the sustainability of the limited source of The Earth.
