“The land ethic simply enlarges the boundaries of the community to include soils, waters, plants, and animals, or collectively: the land.” “…a land ethic changes the role of Homo sapiens from conqueror of the land-community to plain member and citizen of it. It implies respect for his fellow-members,and also respect for the community as such.”
