Environmental Ecology
This first concern is focuses on the natural environment, so that
it does not suffer excessive disfiguration, with quality of life
and with the preservation of species threatened with extinction.
It sees nature as outside of the human being and society. It searches
for new technologies and less pollutants, giving highest priority
to technical solutions. This concern is important because it seeks
to correct the voraciousness of world industrialism, which always
implies high ecological costs.
