ecological theory
definition: Ecological theory is an orientation in curriculum studies that aims to be responsive to the complex intersections between culture and the natural environment and questions how those intersections work for or against environmental sustainability on a local and global level. Sustainability generally refers to practices that do not interfere with natural systems' abilities to renew themselves and to practices and orientations that will not reduce future generations' abilities to live on Earth.
