Martin Buber's philosophy of dialogue can explain how
humankind's relationship with Nature has degraded to
the level of the environmental crisis we face today,
and it can also explain how humankind's relationship
with Nature can improve to one of respect. Buberian
Environmentalism can be distinguished from the
classical ethical triumvirate of virtue ethics,
consequentialism, and deontology. While the classical
triumvirate is characterised by its reductionism,
Buberian Environmentalism is non-reductionist, as its
analyses of moral events consider all aspects of
these events, including the rational and non-rational
mental states of the moral agent, the act itself, and
the consequences following from the act. This study
concludes with an application of Buberian
Environmentalism as an ethical defence of vegetarianism.
