Arne Ness' deep ecology

In the English lessons we have read texts about pollution and facts about it. In the RLE lessons we have read about Arne Ness’ and his thoughts about deep ecology. In this blog entry I am going to relate these themes together.

Arne Ness was a Norwegian philosopher. He fought for the deep ecology. The term “Deep ecology” involves that every living organism have the same rights to develop, such as trees, nature, animals and humans. In reality, people have treated the nature and animals without respect and empathy. This is totally against Arne Ness’ principles of how we should take care of it. In addition, humans do a lot of bad things against the wildlife. One example is overhunting. Supporters of the deep ecology and Arne Ness think we should ask us self, is this really necessary or not? Can we live without doing this?

Pollution is a really deep and serious problem for the human and the whole world. Searching 10 says that 75 000 tress could be spared each week by recycling the Sunday edition of the New York Times. If the humans recycle their paper every day, this will do a lot. If we do not start to think about the rainforest, this will have big consequences for the animals and the climate. Scientists have found ozone holes over both the North and South Pole, and this is because of chemicals and pollution.

To sum up, I would say that everyone should follow Arne Ness and his thoughts about deep ecology and pollution. Almost every human should change their way of living and start to think about the environment and the future.
