    The document discusses two frameworks - the anthropocentric model and the ecocentric model - for understanding the relationship between humanity and the environment. The anthropocentric model views ecological crises as resulting from humanity's unfair utilization and destruction of the environment. The ecocentric model includes the theories of deep ecology, social ecology, and ecofeminism, each of which attributes ecological crises to humanity's domination over nature or social power structures. The document also contrasts the views of ancient and modern thinkers on nature, order, and beauty.
