crisis confronting us, so there must be something wrong with our concept of science. In other words, if science
and technology have been regarded as among the causes of environmental problems by some thinkers, so, we
have to look at our concept of science and see if there are some misconceptions about man-nature relationship

and thoughts of this epoch, as mentioned above.
