ecosophy

noun

Etymology: Blend of ecology + philosophy, coined by Félix Guattari and Arne Næss.

1. Ecological philosophy, particularly of the type associated with the deep ecology movement.

   “[…] ecosophy argues that an individual should act in such a way as to “do as little harm as possible.” The “oath” of those committed to ecosophy closely parallels that of medical doctors: Above all else do no harm.”

   “But Tompkins and his wife Kristine (former head of the Patagonia outdoor-clothing brand), claim to be committed to Deep Ecology, a radically conservationist, holistic "ecosophy" first articulated in the 1970s by Norwegian mountaineer-philosopher Arne Naess.”
