Abstract: |
This article discusses anthropocentric, ecocentric, sustecentric and biocentric theories, correlating a designated approach to capitalism and sustainable development. In order to ask: what is the ecological status of human ecology? Regarding the changes caused by man's action in nature and the very change that these actions infer his perceptions. Evolving biologically and socially entails changes, and it is pertinent to highlight that environmental problems, illusory issues of environmental preservation accommodate society, following the anthropocentric and capitalist bias. However, biocentrism presents an idea of respect between human ecology and interactions with the environment, addressing environmental education as one of the primary alternatives for changing attitudes, cultures and the perception that natural resources are finite, and they must be preserved for present and future generations. |
