Ecological Moral Character : A Catholic Model
An ecological model through which we can imagine Aquinas' vision of moral characterThe images we use to think about moral character are powerful.They inform our understanding of the moral virtues and the ways in which moral character develops.However, this aspect of virtue ethics is rarely discussed. In Ecological Moral Character, Nancy M. Rourke creates an ecological model through which we can form images of moral character.She integrates concepts of ecology with Aquinas' vision and describes the dynamics of a moral character in terms of the processes and functions that take place in an ecosystem.The virtues, the passions, the will, and the intellect, are also described in terms of this model. Ecological Moral Character asks readers to choose deliberately the models we use to imagine moral character and offers this ecological virtue model as a vital framework for a period of environmental crisis.

What is the difference between ecological backpack, ecological balance, and ecological footprint?
The ecological backpack refers to the amount of natural resources and energy required to support an individual's lifestyle and consumption habits. Ecological balance refers to the state of equilibrium within an ecosystem, where the interactions between living organisms and their environment are stable and sustainable. Ecological footprint measures the impact of human activities on the environment by calculating the amount of biologically productive land and water required to sustain those activities. In summary, the ecological backpack focuses on individual consumption, ecological balance on the stability of ecosystems, and ecological footprint on the overall environmental impact of human activities.

What are ecological topics?
Ecological topics are subjects related to the interactions between organisms and their environment. These topics can include biodiversity, conservation, ecosystems, climate change, pollution, and sustainability. Studying ecological topics helps us understand the delicate balance of nature and how human activities can impact the health of our planet. By addressing these topics, we can work towards creating a more harmonious relationship between humans and the environment.

What are ecological problems?
Ecological problems are issues that arise from the disruption of the natural balance and functioning of ecosystems. These problems can include habitat destruction, pollution, climate change, deforestation, loss of biodiversity, and overexploitation of natural resources. Ecological problems can have far-reaching impacts on the environment, wildlife, and human populations, leading to negative consequences such as species extinction, water and air pollution, and disruptions to the food chain. Addressing these problems requires a holistic approach that considers the interconnectedness of all living organisms and their environments.

Ecological Restoration
Published by Sinauer Associates, an imprint of Oxford University Press. Ecological Restoration provides a comprehensive overview of the strategies being used around the world to reverse human impacts to landscapes, ecosystems, and species.This book aims to improve the outcomes of restoration practice by strengthening the connections between ecological concepts and real-world decision-making: students explore each topic considering both research-based knowledge and lessons learned from nineteen actual restorations.Details of these ecological restorations, from underwater reefs to mines in hot deserts, are woven into each chapter, presented as case studies, and used in exercises. Because introductory ecological restoration courses are taken by undergraduate students from a wide variety of academic backgrounds, the book explains and applies basic concepts from many supporting fields that serve as the foundation for practice, including ecology, conservation biology, earth and water sciences, environmental design, and public policy.

Ecological Complexity
Complexity has received substantial attention from scientists and philosophers alike.There are numerous, often conflicting, accounts of how complexity should be defined and how it should be measured.Much less attention has been paid to the epistemic implications of complexity, especially in Ecology.How does the complex nature of ecological systems affect ecologists' ability to study them?This Element argues that ecological systems are complex in a rather special way: they are causally heterogeneous.Not only are they made up of many interacting parts, but their behaviour is variable across space or time.Causal heterogeneity is responsible for many of the epistemic difficulties that ecologists face, especially when making generalisations and predictions.Luckily, ecologists have the tools to overcome these difficulties, though these tools have historically been considered suspect by philosophers of science.The author presents an updated philosophical account with an optimistic outlook of the methods and status of ecological research.

Being Ecological
'To read Being Ecological is to be caught up in a brilliant display of intellectual pyrotechnics' P.D.Smith, GuardianWhy is everything we think we know about ecology wrong?Is there really any difference between 'humans' and 'nature'?Does this mean we even have a future?Don't care about ecology?This book is for you. Timothy Morton, who has been called 'Our most popular guide to the new epoch' (Guardian), sets out to show us that whether we know it or not, we already have the capacity and the will to change the way we understand the place of humans in the world, and our very understanding of the term 'ecology'.A cross-disciplinarian who has collaborated with everyone from Björk to Hans Ulrich Obrist, Morton is also a member of the object-oriented philosophy movement, a group of forward-looking thinkers who are grappling with modern-day notions of subjectivity and objectivity, while also offering fascinating new understandings of Heidegger and Kant.Calling the volume a book containing 'no ecological facts', Morton confronts the 'information dump' fatigue of the digital age, and offers an invigorated approach to creating a liveable future.

What are ecological damages?
Ecological damages refer to the harm or destruction caused to the natural environment and its ecosystems. This can include pollution, deforestation, habitat destruction, and the loss of biodiversity. Ecological damages can have far-reaching impacts on the balance of ecosystems, the health of plant and animal species, and the overall sustainability of the environment. These damages can disrupt the natural processes that support life on Earth and can have negative effects on human communities as well.

What is ecological tolerance?
Ecological tolerance refers to the range of environmental conditions within which a species can survive and reproduce. This includes factors such as temperature, humidity, pH, and nutrient availability. Species with a wide ecological tolerance can thrive in a variety of conditions, while those with narrow tolerance are more limited in their ability to survive in different environments. Understanding ecological tolerance is important for conservation efforts and managing ecosystems, as it helps to predict how species may respond to environmental changes.
