Environmental Values Where do you stand? The glass is half empty or half full? Pessimistic or optimistic? Environmental values (worldviews): – Ecocentric: Life-centered, respects the right of nature and us as humans depending on nature for our survival. – Anthropocentric (technocentric): human-centered (individually- centered), nature is beneficial to human survival but we are not dependent on nature. We are the dominant species on earth. – Cornucopians: Believes that there are infinite resources for human needs and we as a human race can solve any problem that arises. – Environmental managers (stewards): Believe that we must tend the earth and we have an ethical duty to protect the earth. – Deep ecologists: Earth-centered, All species have rights and values and that humans are over-consuming the earth’s resources. They value nature more than humankind.
