Concerns of Natural Ecology in Confucianism in Pre-qin Period and Its Practical Significance

儒学文献是华夏文明初始阶段的文化丰碑,其中蕴涵着对现代人有深刻启示意义的自然观和生态忧患意识。儒家主张人必须顺应自然规律;儒学文献中有关渔猎与森林砍伐的政令体现了先民对自然资源的保护意识;儒家将有节制地利用自然资源视为治国安邦之方略,把珍爱自然天物作为道德教育之内容。这是原始儒学馈赠给现代人的精神财富。

The view of nature protection contained in Confucianist's masterpieces has its enlightenment to human beings today. Confucianists advocated that human beings must obey natural Law. Orders about hunting and cutting in Confucianists' masterpieces show our ancestors' awareness of natural resources protection; Confucianists considered using natural resources limitedly the good ways of how to govern a country, and protecting nature as content of moral education.
