Then lets talk about it! The Deep Ecology On-line Project is about encouraging the use of communication technologies to facilitate discussion among the deep ecology community. It is an opportunity to discuss issues, books, and ideas, build resources, and meet others interested in deep ecology. This mailing list is sponsored by The Institute For Deep Ecology, and The Institute For Global Communication (EcoNet (tm)). If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe deep-ecology WHAT IS DEEP ECOLOGY? - A Philosophy based on the Inherent Value of All Life - An International Movement for Social Change - A Path for Personal Growth - A Compass for Daily Action Deep ecology is about transforming our way of life. It is a movement of people waking up to the root causes of our society's degradation of nature and peoples. As it seeks to heal contemporary alienation from self, community, and the Earth, deep ecology encourages a fundamental shift in the way we experience nature and how we respond to the environmental crisis. Deep ecology arises from a belief in the essential value and interdependence of all forms of being. Supporters of deep ecology are committed to minimizing humanity's destructive interference with the rest of the natural world and to restoring the diversity and complexity of ecosystems and human communities. The deep ecology vision is an empowering one. It offers a view of life that nourishes the human spirit. It offers a community of support to face the political and ethical challenges of our time. It promotes practices to help change old patterns of thinking and acting. And it reconciles us with the larger natural world that is our home. DEEP ECOLOGY PLATFORM Adapted for the Institute for Deep Ecology 1. There is inherent value in all life and life support systems. 2. Diversity and complexity of life forms and cultures contribute to the well-being of all life and are of value in themselves. 3. Humanity is part of nature, and because of our power to destroy, our responsibility toward nature is greater than that of any other species. 4. Present human interference in the non-human world is detrimental to many life forms and support systems, and the situation is rapidly getting worse. 5. Destructive patterns of production/consumption and population growth are key elements of this interference. 6. Basic ideological, political, economic, and technological policies and structures must therefore change. 7. These changes should be toward higher quality of life rather than higher standard of living, while also working towards basic material necessities for all people. 8. Those who accept the foregoing points have an obligation to participate in implementing the necessary changes. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= I could not find the subscrition information for the ULS (Use Less Stuff) newsletter.
