Definition

  • The land ethic invites humans to include land—soil, water, plants, and animals—in their moral calculations as they consider different courses of actions. It was developed and argued for by Aldo Leopold in The Sand County Almanac, first published in 1949. [Source: Green Politics: An A-to-Z Guide; Land Ethic]
