umwelt
[edit]hi, you removed my submission on the umwelt page. The section added was on a chapter of a book focused on umwelt, which was referenced. all information included came from his book, and i indicated throughout that the ideas and information were that of Hathaway’s. i also added the section “anthropological application” in an effort to indicate that umwelt is used in environmental anthropology. no information was biased.
