What is deep ecology?
Today is Earth Day, so let’s talk about a philosophy that promotes the worth of all living beings on our planet, regardless of whether they cater to our human needs. Deep ecology was theorised by Norwegian philosopher Arne Naess in the 1970. He published his original paper on the subject in a 1973 edition of Inquiry journal. The article was entitled “The Shallow and the Deep, Long-Range Ecology Movements: A Summary.” It introduced the deep ecology philosophy, and distinguished it from what Naess called shallow environmentalism.
