Deep Ecology

Front Cover
G.M. Smith, 1985 - Science - 266 pages
The environmental problems of technocratic-industrial societies are increasingly seen as manifestations of what some individuals describe as "the continuing environmental crisis". This is coming to be understood as a crisis of character and of culture. The authors believe that we may not need a new ecological philosophy, but need to reawaken something very old, to reawaken our understanding of Earth wisdom, to cultivate an ecological consciousness. The themes in the book alternate between personal, individual options and public policy and collective options.
