ECOHISTORICAL APPROACH TO THE PROBLEM OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Milan Polić
; Filozofski fakultet, Zagreb
Sažetak
Different ecological researches, that with each day arrive at
some new frightening conceptions about the possibility of the
human environment's near destruction, stimulate sudden environmental
awareness. However, satisfactory answers to the danger
that threatens us are not to be seen yet. The solutions offered
are mainly ad hoc ideological (retrograde) reactions to the espied
problem and are without ecohistorical basis. The pleaders of the
so-called return to nature theory are becoming louder, new productions
and energy sources which are supposed to be clean and
not pollute the environment are being sought-after. However, they
fail to realize that the environment is not endangered only by industrial
waste, but above all by useful products adapted for human
use. Thus, we have to emphasize the historical dimension of
environmental protection. History is, however, very little involved
in such ecological research and ecological education. We cannot
find any serious solutions for environmental protection without respecting
the historical essence of the human being. What we
need is the ecohistorical approach, as the basis for future technological
development and public education.
