520 | |a The question of whether or not people are part of nature is relevant to discuss humans' role on earth and their environmental responsibilities. This article introduces the perspectival account of the concept of "nature," which starts from the observation that we talk about the environment from a particular, human perspective. In this account, the term "nature" is used to refer to those parts of and events in the environment we perceive as being shaped by typically human activities. Humans themselves are part of nature insofar as they participate in and are products of natural processes. Therefore, in this account, nature is not only the passive environment, but also something active and generative that does not operate human creativity, but rather and it in shaping our environment. According to the perspectival account, the "nature" concept expresses a particular relationship between the human agent and the non-human environment, which can be the starting point for normative theory. | ||
