Ecological Quotes

Finally, the ecological health of the Mississippi River and its economic importance to the many people that make their living or seek their recreation is based on a healthy river system Picture Quote #1

An anarchist society, far from being a remote ideal, has become a precondition for the practice of ecological principles Picture Quote #1

Ecological devastation is the excrement, so to speak, of man’s power worship Picture Quote #1

Women must see that there can be no liberation for them and no solution to the ecological crisis within a society whose fundamental model of relationships continues to be one of domination. They must unite the demands of the women’s movement with those of the ecological movement to envision a radical reshaping of the basic socioeconomic relations and the underlying values of this [modern industrial] society Picture Quote #1

Ecology’s implications for capitalism are too momentous for the capitalist to contemplate. The plutocrats are more wedded to their wealth than to the Earth upon which they live, more concerned with the fate of their fortunes than with the fate of humanity. The present ecological crisis has been created by the few at the expense of the many Picture Quote #1

Nuclear man is the man who realizes that his creative powers hold the potential for self-destruction. He sees that in this nuclear age vast new industrial complexes enable man to produce in one hour that which he labored over for years in the past, but he also realizes that these same industries have disturbed the ecological balance and, through air and noise pollution, have contaminated his own milieu Picture Quote #1

We are a profoundly interconnected species, as the global economic and ecological crises reveal in vivid and frightening detail. We must embrace the simple fact that we are dependent on and accountable to one another Picture Quote #1

The planet Mars -- crimson and bright, filling our telescopes with vague intimations of almost-familiar landforms -- has long formed a celestial tabula rasa on which we have inscribed our planeto-logical theories, utopian fantasies, and fears of alien invasion or ecological ruin Picture Quote #1

Well I think on a simple ecological level that the diversity of this planet is important for our survival, that all of our different cultures, people are important to the health of the whole the same way that a species of animal should be saved and at a simple ecology level Picture Quote #1

We’re shaking loose viruses and dislodging them from their natural ecological limitations, places where they aren’t very abundant and have competition, even within a single animal. We introduce them into a new, rich habitat called the human population, where they can flourish more abundantly and cause more trouble Picture Quote #1

Viewed from a holistic ecological perspective, some meat - such as conscientiously hunted animals - involves less suffering and environmental damage than arable agriculture, while both of these are significantly less harmful than indiscriminately purchasing meat on the market Picture Quote #1

Both individual fulfillment and the ecological balance of life on this planet are best served by dying when our inherent biology decrees that we do Picture Quote #1

Being rational - along with being clear and honest - are important if we are to create the needed shift in fundamental thinking necessary to make it possible to pull this world back from the brink of multiple disasters on ecological, cultural, political, and economic fronts Picture Quote #1

In Tasmania, an island the size of Ireland whose primeval forests astonished 19th-century Europeans, an incomprehensible ecological tragedy is being played out Picture Quote #1

The superabundance is an ecological myth that we will never run out of resources, that the Earth, that Gaia, is in this perpetual state of renewal. And the contagious magic is the blind belief that this is the case, and the reason we’re careering towards ecological disaster Picture Quote #1

Socialism failed because it couldn’t tell the economic truth. Capitalism may fail because it couldn’t tell the ecological truth Picture Quote #1

The industrial processes in use today were developed at a time when no one had to consider what the environmental impact was. Who cared? But making ecological concerns matter to a company’s bottom line will help it do the research and development that will reinvent everything we buy Picture Quote #1

Catch-and-release fishing is an ecological necessity, not my preference. The practice smacks of bad faith, an inauthentic act Picture Quote #1

We study the past ecological history, with the conscience of the present ecological conditions. The key to predict future aquatic ecosystem changes Picture Quote #1

We study the past ecological history, with the conscience of the present ecological conditions, the only window to predict the future environmental and climate changes Picture Quote #1

We study the past history, with the conscience of the present environmental changes; we can only predict the future ecological changes, by emergence of the past into the present Picture Quote #1

I want to tell mayors, county chiefs and heads of big companies: don’t just chase GDP growth; don’t chase the biggest profits at the expense of our children and grandchildren and at the cost of sacrificing our ecological environment Picture Quote #1

The ecological challenges we face are the result of billions of ecologically ignorant decisions made by billions of people over centuries. To address the climate crisis, we now need billions of people to make ecologically intelligent decisions Picture Quote #1

Wars don’t happen on battlefields; they go on happening in people’s hearts for generations and generations, and the ecological damage is unfathomably complex and dire Picture Quote #1

We don’t need a War on Carbon. We need a new prosperity that can be shared by all while still respecting a multitude of real ecological limits - not just atmospheric gas concentrations, but topsoil depth, water supplies, toxic chemical concentrations, and the health of ecosystems, including the diversity of life they depend upon Picture Quote #1

There have been low moments before, but Christianity is an incredibly adaptable organism, using different parts of its repertoire to mutate into new ecological niches, yet preserving intact its story of grace, of love improbably triumphant Picture Quote #1

Caring is not abstract. The circle of ecological compassion we feel is enlarged by direct experience of the living world, and shrunken by its lack Picture Quote #1

In a way, being born is a sort of ecological contagion. When you have longevity of family, we remember our grandfathers and maybe our great-grandfathers. We somehow don’t have the capacity in modern life to remember further than that. All of the ramifications of their lives have an effect on us, and we’re not aware of it Picture Quote #1

The ecological crisis is doing what no other crisis in history has ever done - challenging us to a realization of a new humanity Picture Quote #1

More science and more technology are not going to get us out of the present ecological crises until we find a new religion, or rethink our old one Picture Quote #1
