Abstract

The current ecological crisis has highlighted the inability of the human being to counteract the devastating effects of his actions in nature, showing that much of the responsibility is due to an ethical problem. From this situation, highlight ecological values as a basis of understanding to resignify the relationship between humans and the natural environment. The purpose of this writing is to approach a revaluation of the desert landscape from an ecoethical perspective determined in the philosophical resignification of the human-nature relationship, highlighting the responsibility of the human being as part
and member, leaving aside its central postulating destructive role of “The ethics of the earth” written by Aldo Leopold and that marks the beginning of the debate on ecoethics and the conservation of the environment, showing the ecological importance of energy exchange, seeing in it, different epistemological and philosophical positions on the ecological relationship of human being and his environment.
