Corine Pelluchon on Ecology - Dictionary of Arguments

Ecology/Pelluchon/PelluchonVsNaess: The pitfall of separating ecology and existence, as can be blamed on the environmental ethics that emerged in the 1970s (as in the deep ecology of the influential Norwegian philosopher Arne Naess) [is to be avoided].
Deep Ecology/Pelluchon: whose achievement consisted in decentering ethics by attributing to living beings a value beyond their utility.
PelluchonVsNaess/PelluchonVsDeep Ecology: in its praise of the natural wilderness, however, this ecological thinking of the 1970s tended to only renew in other ways the dualism of man and nature that its opponents claimed.
Physicality/Body/Pelluchon: Moreover, the holistic vision defended by the environmental ethics of the 1970s was too abstract: because it only addressed reason and not affects, it could not induce individuals to change their lifestyle. Nor did this thinking succeed in inspiring an ecological policy to put the economy at the service of living things and to reorganize production in such a way that it takes into account the limits of the planet and frees certain sectors, such as agriculture, livestock and care, from the economic dictates of maximum efficiency. >Body/Pelluchon
