environmentalism
n.
advocacy for the preservation of natural environments
Environmentalism
Environmentalism is a concern for the preservation, restoration, or improvement of the
natural environment, such as the conservation of natural resources, prevention of
pollution, and certain land use actions. It often supports the struggles of
indigenous peoples against the spread of
globalization to their way of life, which is seen as less harmful to the environment. The study of practical environmentalism is split into two positions: the mainstream ‘
anthropocentric’ or hierarchic, and the more radical ‘
ecocentric’ or egalitarian.
