depends what you mean by the word "nature". Nature can be defined as the view and act of the environment and everything in it to include plants, animals, insects, the air, the sky, etc. Another meaning for the word nature can also be the acts and way of being of a specific thing. For example, human nature is taht somethings and some people are just deemed as attractive regardless of where in the world they are seen and by whom they are seen. The act of nature in humans would be the needs to sleep, eat, drink and go to the bathroom. So, in theory, yes, it is possible for humans to go against the acts of nature by preventing or intervining with somethings such as overkilling prey or damaging forests and such areas. At the same time, however, you could say it is part of nature that the predator kills the prey and so on. This is correct but the area taht goes against nature is when more than what is needed is killed. So yes, it is possible to go against nature even though we are considered part of nature.

A lot of the things we do are natural although a bit more extreme than found in nature, including destructive behavior.
example:
Clearing away trees/brush, altering enviroment: Beavers, prairie dogs
Eating almost anything requardless of nutritional content: Canines, both domestic and wild
Human Behaviors Not Found In Nature:
sitting mesmerized in front of computer or book or tv for hours

We have created an atmosphere where we have considered it "Man Against Nature". We have conquered all the rest of nature rather than working with nature for the benefit of all. I know this is not how most people take this, but we have not let ouselves be part of nature.

Yes, humans are part of nature, so the statement doesn't make good sense. Some speakers, though, do distinguish between people and the rest of nature.

Solid question. I guess when we say something is "natural" we are assigning an ethical quality to nature which make no sense. In fact it's downright unnatural!
