Because we must first define the term before cornering it into the environmental-only corner. Here is the dictionary.com definition of what the multi-syllable word means.
–verb (used with object)
1. to support, hold, or bear up from below; bear the weight of, as a structure.
2. to bear (a burden, charge, etc.).
3. to undergo, experience, or suffer (injury, loss, etc.); endure without giving way or yielding.
4. to keep (a person, the mind, the spirits, etc.) from giving way, as under trial or affliction.
5. to keep up or keep going, as an action or process: to sustain a conversation.
Some of the definitions. We are speaking about keeping something alive, keeping it going. Now lets think of the entire system of life, not just the environment. Not that we should not care about the environment, but the definition is much broader than that.
What would make you save the environment anyhow?
