When talking about a theory that
involve deep ecology, first thing to understand is that the different in
perspectives between normal and deep. Both of them may concern about same thing
or object but the boundary of each type are quite different. When we talk about
a deep ecology of something no matter it is an object, or living organism, we
always study in a large scale. Let think about it for a second, and then try to
imagine a pen as an example. In a holistic point of view, we only analyze
mainly about its components and function, but when we go beyond that into the “deep
ecology” we are not just observe about how many parts of it? Or about how they
move? We are looking at the connections between the pen and the natural
resources, basically the world. We are questioning how it was made? Which materials
do we need? How much do we have to use? Or even how this pen will affects the
future world.
As you can see that, deep ecology
is basically the study of relationships that goes beyond simple things into a
more serious consequence. We can say that it is about the chain effects that
one thing can create, which is very interesting because there are many examples
that shows how important this theory could be. Let’s think about the system as
a plan to perfection and then apply it to the concept of topos. I personally
think that system is what makes a place become a utopia because the fact that
system would provide the best solution for many things for example the most
suitable way to organize resources, which sure will create a well community.
But still, just like the utopia, this system is not entirely real, it is like a
guideline which is not practical enough for us, the human. So, the will not
only lack of the ability to change human nature but also it will not guaranteed
that people will followed it to the letter. For me, it is still just an idea,
but a great idea that help every people in a scale.
