What is Ecologism?

Ecologism is an ideological theory based on the idea of a relationship between mankind and nature. It reflects on how society’s connection to nature is taken for granted. Ecologism created a link with political ideologies when the industrialisation too places. Ecoligists' are critical of industrialisation as it destroys the connection between the people and nature. During the end of 1970s, Ecologism had theoretically developed into three main parts.  The first was the environmentalist approach that highlights the concerns around the environment and ways to stop it degrading. The second the recognition of a threat to the environment. Anthropocentrism. This is the belief that humans needs and interests should be prioritised. Lastly the emergence of the idea of ‘deep ecology’, which is an ideology that rejects anthropocentrism and prioritises maintenance of nature, which is associated with diversity and much more.
