Preferred term

deep ecology movement  

Definition

  • Deep ecology emerges from the intuition that nature and self are one. It is important because it provides the motivation for much of the environmental activism that is conducted in the name of geography and education for sustainable development, and it is the source of most eco-centric (ecosystem-centered) thinking within geography.
