To start a journey into environmental ethics, begin with what you know. One of the best ways to become aware of what you already know about environmental ethics is to write an autobiography of your relationship with the earth. Ethics is a matter of connecting head and heart. But too often ethical reasoning becomes detached from our experience, emotions, feelings, and deepest if unacknowledged commitments. By telling the story of the history of your relationship with the earth, you can better reflect on why we value the natural world as we do. Many people describe their relationship with the Earth in spiritual or religious terms. Why might that be? Some people understand their relationship with the Earth as a source of meaning in their lives, and this might be spiritual, or it might not be. By reflecting on these deeper commitments of the heart, you can better refine our ethical reasoning about the environment.
