Well, when you live right by a volcanoes like Hana on Maui, or Kilauea on the Big Island and you breathe in The Vog (volcanic fog) and cry and sneeze and have difficulty breathing regularly, and see the devastation and extension of the plant life killed off by sulphur dioxide, and the island reshaped by the lava. When you see the power of the earth in its original raw form, some call it the goddess Pele, then you develop a certain respect, perhaps even an understanding even if you are a scientist....
