| Environmental pollution and the ecological crisis caused by it have become a major problem endangering human survival.Although countries in the world,especially developed countries,have invested a lot of human,material and financial resources,such as vigorously developing new technologies to promote the continuous upgrading of related industries,constantly improving various laws and regulations related to environmental protection,and constantly strengthening more strict administrative supervision and so on,the trend of increasingly deteriorating ecological environment has not been fundamentally reversed.On the surface,the main driver of this grim situation is the seemingly irreconcilable contradiction between obtaining economic benefits and maintaining the ecological environment,but the deeper reason is that there are major deviations in people’s ideas,especially in the understanding of the relationship between people,people and nature.For example,Western utilitarianism thinks that there is only a relationship of interests and competition between people,while western anthropocentrism and mechanical cosmology think that nature is only the object of human conquest.It is precisely because of these misconceptions that people believe that it is natural and natural to plunder nature in order to meet their expanding desires.But must economic development be at the expense of the ecological environment? The answer of the golden mean philosophy is negative.Xi Jinping’s golden sentence is that the golden wisdom of the beautiful scenery is the golden mean."Green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains" contains the profound philosophy of "intergrowth" and "unity of heaven and man",which is the essence of the doctrine of the mean.When people realize that people and people,people and nature are a community of life,the contradiction between economic development and ecological environment protection will disappear.Therefore,the idea of the mean is a golden key to solve today’s serious ecological and environmental problems.This paper makes a more in-depth discussion on this. |
