Pollution and Morality
For many, for a long time, the 'Environment' has signified the inert world that Humans inhabit, a concept deriving from Descartes' concept of the lifelessness of the corporeal world. The economic implication of that concept is that such a world is a potential source of Profit for it its owner. But with the emergence of a Biological concept of the corporeal world, which Humans inhabit imminently, Humans are Biologically effected by all events. For example, while in the Cartesian model, pollution is Profit-producing that may affects onl the owner of the natural resource, in a Biological model, any pollution has potential ill Biological effects on any other Human. In other words, there is a Moral distinction between the Cartesian model and the Biological model--for the former, Profit-Seeking of the Individual has the high priority, whereas Humanism follows from the Biological model. Regardless, in the current political situation, the conflict is merely bi-partisan, and economic.
