Abstract

This paper shows that pragmatic rationality is crucial in environmental culture, without which the smooth functioning of the environment is possible. The second important lesson from this inquiry is that it is the foundation for a rich understanding of rationality that is open and does not discriminate against any environmen- tal entities. Let us pose these questions as an invitation to further study the question of rationality in the field of environmental ethics. Can we abandon rationality and do something worthwhile? Is it not because of rationality that we are discussing the problem of non-human ani- mals? Do we not need a reason to rebuild the eco-culture that we need?
