WARWICK FOX: ETHICS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE WHOLE ECOSPHERE

ENVISION THIS: Ethical decisions at any level--ecological, social, or the built environment--must take the whole planetary ecosphere as our base context, because everything exists in relationship to everything else.

Our guest, Warwick Fox, argues in A THEORY OF GENERAL ETHICS: HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS, NATURE, AND THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT that defending and strengthening the "responsive cohesion" among all things should be our foundational value as we move toward a more resilient, Earth-friendly, and equitable future.
