Human greed has manifested itself in new ways, many of which are causing irreparable damage to the environment. This societal shift is anthropocentrism, where humankind is given intrinsic value; or being important merely for existing in and of itself. When human beings make decisions using this mindset, it reduces the world around them to only having instrumental value; or being important only in relation to what it provides or does for humankind. The environment becomes a malleable plaything from which we derive anything and everything we want, with consideration for our needs and desires, and with a lack of concern for the effects and damage it may cause to our generous planet.

Let’s save the environment for our grandchildren.” While there is some value to Naess’ perspective in that humankind should focus less on centering themselves and their desires above the balance and safety of our environment, many of the tenets of deep ecology are quite radical and would be unrealistic. 

I don’t believe deep ecology is the answer, but humankind must take a step back and reduce some of its social and cultural emphasis on what benefits humans, their wallets, and that alone.

Hope it helps.....
