The Human Person in
the Environment
No man is an island, entire
of itself; every man is a
piece of the continent, a
part of the main.
-John Donne
A human person interacts
not only with his fellow
human beings but also with
other living and non-living
elements in his environment.
Humankind is part of the
world, and we significantly
affect our environment in
the same way that changes
in our environment affect us.
How does philosophy define the
persons relationship with the
environment?
Like the physical sciences, philosophy also seeks to
explore the relationship between humanity and the
environment.
ENVIRONMENTAL PHILOSOPHY or ENVIRONMENTAL
ETHICS is the discipline in philosophy that studies
the moral relationship of human beings with the
environment and its non-living contents.
THREE MAJOR VIEWS REGARDING THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMANITY AND
ENVIRONMENT

This view believes that humans
are the most important species on
the planet and are free to
transform nature and use its
resources.
THREE MAJOR VIEWS REGARDING THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMANITY AND
ENVIRONMENT
BIOCENTRISM  This view
believes that humans are not the
only significant species on the
planet, and all organisms have
inherent value and should be
protected.
THREE MAJOR VIEWS REGARDING THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMANITY AND
ENVIRONMENT
ECOCENTRISM  This view
believes that humankind is part
of a greater biological system or
community and that we have a
significant role as stewards or
guardians of nature.
ENVIRONMENTAL AESTHETICS
It is a philosophical view that believes
maintaining order in the environment
will bring our natural beauty of the
surroundings and contribute to the
well-being of the people and other
organisms living in it.

It refers to maintaining the state
of the environment. This means that
human activities should not unduly
disrupt the ecosystems and human
communities located in the area.
SUSTAINABILITY
Three Important Principles
ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY
It refers to prudence in decision-
making regarding the use of
resources to ensure that there is
minimum to zero waste.
SUSTAINABILITY
Three Important Principles
EQUITY
It demands that we use
resources in such a manner that
these are conserved so that the next
generation will be able to use them.
PRUDENCE
It is the ability to regulate ones actions
and behavior.
FRUGALITY
It is being thrifty with the use of ones
resources.
As human persons, it is our
responsibility to treat with
respect not only our fellow
humans but also everything
in the world.
