    Let me supply this quote from the novel Dune (p. 498):

    "The thing the ecologically illiterate don't realize about an ecosystem," Kynes said, "is that it's a system. A system!

The untrained might miss that collapse until it was too late. That's why the highest function of ecology is the understanding of consequences.
