We are the
environmental ecologists commenting to the deep ecologists. We will begin
giving the example of a real tree hugger which got carried away by her
extremist love and protection towards nature. Her name was Jane Goudall and was
born in London. She strongly believed in giving up everything to safe the gorillas’
community. And when the local tribes did a common tradition of cutting the
gorillas hands, her extremist emotions towards gorillas let her to seek for
revenge. At the end the tribe killed her and the results were negative, and she
lost her life. Her extremist point and
her strong emotions blinded her and her actions didn’t consider other points of
view. with this example we ar trying to explain that the mentality of the deep
ecologies, eventhough it has good intentions, the goals that they are trying to
reach are to extremist and utopian.
Going back
to the idea about energy distribution around the world, in this graph
We consider
the 86 percent of the world population relies in fossil fuels on the daily lives,
while the deep ecologist mentality would suggest to cut all this use of fossil
fuels to totally stop the fossil fuels it’s an unreal proposition. On the other
hand we as ecological managers think that a more realistic solution would be to
use regulations such as an increase on fossil fuel use and decrease costs of
alternative energy sources, incrementing the percentage of people that use renewable
energy by making it more accessible.
