This concept‚ in conjunction with the slightly less expanded sentio-centrism of Peter Singer and Tom Regan and the further-expanded moral consideration of the biotic community inherent in ecocentrism and deep ecology‚ more explicitly defines the moral obligations of humans with regard to environmental policy. The concept of radical equality is perhaps the most contentious claim of biocentrists; however it is neither necessary nor detrimental to the usefulness

INTRODUCTION Ecological crisis are indeed a true crisis of humanity. Whenever man tried to progress and advance further‚ crisis inevitably took place. It has been seen that man always had to pay very dearly when he make some progress. When the Industrial revolution hit Europe in the 19th century‚ the world hailed the advent of the glorious new age. It was a brave new world-a world of steam engines and motor cars. Then came

Interrelationships among the Different Components of the Ecosystem I.

It studies interactions between different organisms and their environments‚ including relations within its own species and members of others. Ecology focuses more on the population‚ community‚ and ecosystem ecology although it also includes a wide variety of fields. Both the living (biotic) and the
