Why ecocentrism is the key pathway to sustainability
<https://www.academia.edu/t/a-LDJBXnz-EFwoR/32021444/Why_ecocentrism_is_the_key_pathway_to_sustainability>

Ecocentrism is the broadest term for worldviews that recognize intrinsic
value in all lifeforms and ecosystems themselves, including their abiotic
components. Anthropocentrism, in contrast, values other lifeforms and
ecosystems insofar as they are valuable for human well-being, preferences
and interests. Herein, the authors examine the roots of ecocentrism and
discuss its mixed history of international recognition. They argue that
non-human nature has intrinsic value irrespective of human preferences or
valuation, and they refute the claim that ecocentrism is misanthropic. They

If We Want a Whole Earth, Nature Needs Half’. A reply to ‘Half-Earth or
Whole Earth? Radical ideas for conservation, and their implications
<https://www.academia.edu/t/a-LDJBXnz-EFwoR/32978375/If_We_Want_a_Whole_Earth_Nature_Needs_Half_._A_reply_to_Half-Earth_or_Whole_Earth_Radical_ideas_for_conservation_and_their_implications>

Büscher et al.'s (2016) recent article ‘Half-Earth or Whole Earth? Radical
ideas for conservation, and their implications’ raises some important
issues for conservation, but it paints a misleading picture of the Nature
Needs Half movement. Nature Needs Half expresses three main tenets: (1)
habitat loss and degradation are the leading causes of biodiversity loss,
(2) current protected areas are not extensive enough to stem further loss
of biodiversity, and (3) it is morally wrong for our species to drive other
species to extinction (Wilson, 2016). Conservation biologists agree that
to...

Assessment of biowaste losses through unsound waste management practices in
rural areas and the role of home composting
<https://www.academia.edu/t/a-LDJBXnz-EFwoR/29663869/Assessment_of_biowaste_losses_through_unsound_waste_management_practices_in_rural_areas_and_the_role_of_home_composting>

The paper examines the biowaste management issues across rural areas of
Romania in the context of poor waste management infrastructure in the last
decade (2003-2012). Biowaste is the main fraction of municipal waste, thus
a proper management is a key challenge in order to sustain a bioeconomy in
the near future. The amount of biowaste generated and uncollected by waste
operators is generally uncontrolled disposed if not recovered through home
composting. The paper points out the role of home composting in diverting
the biowaste from wild dumps and landfills for the regions covered or not
by...
