生态审美与环境教育

环境破坏的根本原因是人环境意识的淡漠和观念的落后。解决这一问题的有效方法就是大力开展环境教育。已有的环境教育取得了很大的成效,但环境的持续恶化并没有得到根本的遏制。要改变这一状况,就应该改变传统的环境教育思想,超越功利主义的自然观,把人与自然的物质功利关系提高到生态审美的境界,建立人与自然平等的精神交流关系,实现人与自然的全面和谐。发挥生态审美的优势,大力开展生态美育,积极改造传统社会的"经济人",使其转变"生态人",追求"诗意栖居",是当前环境教育的主要任务。

Ecologically Aesthetical Judgments and Environment Education

Weak environment consciousness and old ideas are the fundamental reasons causing environment damages, the solution of which is to carry out environment education at a lager scale because the increasing deterioration of environment has not been stopped though many achievements have been made in environment education. Therefore efforts should be made on the renewal of traditional environment education, the overcoming of utilitarian natural ideas, the update of this utilitarian relation between man and nature to a new level of ecological aesthetics. This is the truly and equally spiritual communication between man and nature, and the harmony coexistence of these two. To realize these, the main task at present is give a full play to ecologically aesthetical judgments, to carry out ecological education greatly, and to transform and model the traditional "economical man" into an ecological one.
