Ecological aesthetics thinking is generated in the background of human and the entire Earth's survival crisis. Based on the reality of nature, society and academic, it is a kind of philosophic thinking and values which is in line with contemporary thinking and the trend of historical development. Ecological aesthetics regards harmony as the highest form of aesthetics. This harmony does not only refer to the reality, but also the spirit. The profound meaning of ecological aesthetics is the humanities spirit which contains the factors of new era. It is the brand-new ecological ontological aesthetics bringing human, nature and society to the dynamic balancing.Philosophizing about the living status of human, ecological aesthetics is a theory reflecting the conception of ecological aesthetic. Aesthetics is a metaphysical thinking. If we only discuss ecological aesthetics in the field of practical aesthetics, the significance of ecological aesthetics studies will be reduced. And thus we can not realize the values that ecology brings to the entire human race and aesthetics studies in the aspect of thinking and conception. Ontology should be the theoretical premise of the studies of ecological aesthetics. Ecological aesthetics takes phenomenological philosophy as the main source of methodology.We lay ecological aesthetics thinking on the basis of the Marxist materialism philosophy. Meanwhile, we absorb valuable ideas of Heidegger so as to enrich the Marxist materialism philosophy.Ecological aesthetics studies can help people form the correct conception of ecological aesthetics, and thus promote the formation of the correct ecological values. Besides, ecological aesthetics studies play a guiding role in the construction of ecological environment. The goal of ecological environment construction is always to pursue an environment which is suitable for the living and working of people.This paper is divided into five parts:The first part discusses the post-modern context.The second part discusses the reality with which ecological aesthetics are faced.The third part of this paper focuses on the location of ecological aesthetics.The fourth part of this paper discusses philosophic basis of ecological aesthetics The fifth part of this paper discusses both the theoretical and practical significance of ecological aesthetics.
