Deep Ecology is a recent philosophy or ecosophy based on a shift away from the anthropocentric emphasis of established environmental and green movements. The philosophy is marked by a new interpretation of “self” which de-emphasizes the rationalistic duality between the human organism and its environment, thus allowing emphasis to be placed on the intrinsic value of other species, systems and processes in nature. This position leads to an ecocentric system of environmental ethics.

Green Syndicalism has been used as a name for the philosophy of the green guild or sustainable trades movement.
