Environmentalism / Deep Ecology, as stated, 1970-present
20th Century · stated scope
Environmentalism is a broad social and political movement centered on the protection and preservation of the natural environment, while Deep Ecology is a philosophical strand within it that posits intrinsic value in all living systems independent of human utility. Both emerged as organized movements primarily in the 1970s, with roots in earlier conservation traditions, and have operated transnationally through advocacy groups, academic institutions, and international policy bodies. They are principally associated with texts such as Arne Næss's 1973 articulation of Deep Ecology, the founding of organizations like Greenpeace and Earth First!, and recurring frameworks in international environmental agreements.
