- Today, it is a moral goal that most people support - but not all people accept that ecology is the basis of human morality or that interactions with ecology necessarily form their basic character or ethos. Many simply regard nature as a source of beauty and diversity - not of moral example as Greens and the more radical Gaians do.
It's far from clear that most people on the planet Earth support conservation especially when it appears to conflict with economic development.
- Sadly, true., although few will say out loud that they want nature not to be conserved, they'll act otherwise.
Another issue: is this the same concept as hima in Islam ? That was/is tied to religion too. Ibn abd as-Salam formulated a statement of animal rights in the 13th century. That predates this 19-th century origin theory.
