Item Open Access Down to Earth: persons in place in natural history(Colorado State University. Libraries, 1998) Rolston, Holmes, 1932-, author; Roman and Littlefield Publishers, publisherOn Earth living things have home territories. Biology, the logic of life, is always historical or "geographical," graphed out as world lines by embodied beings emplaced in Earth's natural history. Cultural history brings radical innovations. Modern humans do not live in niches in ecosystems; culture and agriculture, industry and technology transform those dependencies. Still, life remains storied residence on landscapes, where culture is, or ought to be, in harmony with nature. Humans can stand apart from the world and consider themselves in relation to it. An earth ethics ought to discover a global obligation to the whole inhabited planet.Item Open Access Ecosystems, food, agriculture, and ethics(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2014) Rolston, Holmes, 1932-, author; Springer Science and Business Media, publisherHumans live in towns and are civilized, but by nature too are residents on landscapes, rural. An ecology lies in the background of culture, providing ecosystem services. Some dimensions of health pervade both wild and agricultural nature. Humans in recent times have dramatically transformed and degraded landscapes, a huge ecological footprint. Humans now are entering an Anthropocene Epoch, escalating industrial agriculture, in both developed and developing nations, hoping for and threatening global sustainable development. A wiser goal might be a sustainable biosphere, the ultimate unit of survival.Item Open Access Treating animals naturally?(Colorado State University. Libraries, 1989) Rolston, Holmes, 1932-, author; Schweitzer Center, San Francisco Bay Institute/Congress of Cultures, publisherWe treat animals naturally. Humans share some nature with nonhuman animals. But attributes appear that are qualitatively and quantitatively not present in nonhumans. Humans are moral in culture and we can further ask how humans should treat animals, who are morally considerable though not in culture. They should be treated naturally, that is, recognizing their intrinsic animal natures and their ecological places in the world.Item Open Access 中国的环境美学： 东方与西方的对话(Colorado State University.
