AO1 All ecologists reject the existing anthropocentric world view and accept the lessons of ecology. AO2 All ecologists agree that a holistic view (Merchant) reveals the interdependence of nature (Carson) and that anthropocentrism is at the heart of environmental destruction. [IJ] This shows clear agreement that the existing anthropocentric approach based on a mechanistic world view must be rejected. AO1 All ecologists reject industrialism and the idea that continued, exponential growth is possible. AO2 All ecologists reject industrialism's belief in exponential growth arguing there are limits to growth on a finite planet. [IJ] This shows clear agreement that the existing economic model is not sustainable. AO1 All ecologists reject the existing model of a materialist and consumerist society. AO2 All ecologists accept a post-materialist and anti-consumerist approach, arguing the existing approach links human happiness to material wealth (Schumacher) and the consumption of goods as the end goal of society. [IJ] This shows strong agreement that a change in values is necessary to prevent ecological destruction.

AO1 There are deep divisions about the world view that should replace anthropocentrism. AO2 Shallow greens adopt an enlightened anthropocentric approach (Carson), which deep greens reject in favour of ecocentrism (Leopold), and social ecology is dismissive of both (Bookchin) focussing on how human-to-human domination is the root cause of environmental destruction. [IJ] This shows a fundamental division within ecologism over humanity's relationship with nature. AO1 There are deep divisions over whether radical change or reform is necessary to protect the Biosphere. AO2 Both deep greens and social ecology believe radical change in terms of society, economy and the state (Bookchin) is necessary whilst shallow greens believe reform within the existing framework. [IJ] This shows a clear disagreement about how to make the changes necessary for a sustainable world. AO1 There are divisions over what sustainability means in practice. AO2 Both deep greens and social ecology support strong sustainability outside of capitalism, whilst shallow greens favour shallow sustainability supported by green capitalism or green managerialism. [IJ] This shows clear disagreements over the economic model necessary for a sustainable world.
