This study is aimed to expose the issue about the hazard toward nature which is done by human through poetic elements and figurative language; speaker, imagery and symbol in revealing the hazard toward nature. This analysis related to concept of eco-criticism by Kent Rayden, Barry and Ikkiara. The result of this analysis shows that the hazard toward nature is done in two ways; animal abuse and deforestation.
