The Study on Ecological Ethics of "Unity of Man and Nature"

Abstract:

"Unity of Man and Nature" is one of the main thoughts in Chinese traditional culture. Its core significance is mainly manifested in the understanding of the relationship between heaven and man. Based on the longitudinal review and brief analysis of the thought of "Unity of Man and Nature" in "Zhouyi", the Confucian culture, Taoist culture and Buddhist culture, we attempt to mix the ecological ethics idea into the thought of "Unity of Man and Nature"; tries to make this traditional culture exude a new brilliance so that it can cope with the serious ecological crisis, and provide intellectual support and theoretical support for the protection of the ecological environment.
