Study Notes

Ecology and Human Relationships

Ecology is not just about humans and the natural world, but also about human relationships with each other.
There are three realms of ecology: natural ecology, social ecology, and urban ecology.

Ecological Outlook

The ecological outlook is holistic, meaning the whole is larger than the sum of its parts.
It views unity and differentiation as essential for natural and social development.
This development should occur spontaneously, without coercion, hierarchy, or domination.

Importance of Diversity

Variety is valuable in both the natural and social worlds.
Diversification is key in eco-technologies and eco-communities.
A diversified approach is necessary for alternative energy sources, such as combining solar, wind, geothermal, and hydroelectric power.

Alternative Energy Sources

Relying on a single alternative energy source is not a solution.
A mosaic of energy sources is needed to create a new energy base with minimal use of traditional energy sources.
