Nature is the physical world and everything in it (such as plants, animals, mountains, oceans, stars, etc.) that is not made by people. Nature was very influential for human life. All sources of human life come from nature. Nature can provide many benefits, but also can provide disaster.
Nature can provide benefits for human life, such as providing air to breathe, providing water to drink, providing animals for food, and others. With so many benefits that given by nature to humans, humans should have awareness to keep it. But what that humans do are just the opposite. Humans cut down trees carelessly, littering, shifting cultivation, polluting, and others. Those human activities can cause various disasters, such as floods, landslides, forest fires and also global warming.
Besides the disasters that caused by human activities, there are also disasters that caused by the condition of that nature, such as earthquake, tsunami, volcanic eruption, and others.
There is nothing we can do to handle those disaster that is not caused by human activites. But for those disaster that is caused by human activities, there are many things that we can do to handle those disasters, such as doing 3R (reduce, reuse, recycle), reforestation, selective logging, use bicycle to the near places, and many others.

We can not live without nature, therefore, protecting nature is our duty as human beings. If not us who take care of nature, then who?
