Abstract

In order to avoid further damage to the ecosystems, we must promote ecological health as the primary goal, which will require at least two steps beyond ecocentrism. First, one must regard the relationship between humankind and natural systems as co-evolutionary. Second, one must develop an ecolate perspective free from _feel good social, ethical, and political rhetoric.
