AB - An idea of environmental philosophy must be persuasive enough for a large number of environmental community to consent. On the other hand, if the idea ask too much morality, it will make environmental problems worse. The reason is that while majority of community neglect environmental problems, moral and spiritual minority are concerned about them.The Antropocentrism and the Ecocentrism in environmental philosophy have been regarded as incommensurable to each other. But the Extended Anthropocentrism is about to compromise a dispute between them. If the extended anthropocentrist and the ecocentrist agree that we must conserve the environment and ecosystem to survive in future, they would prefer to elaborate and extend the Anthropocentrism rather than to present the new paradigm of Ecocentrism. The extended anthropocentrists insist that all the people must take care of the environment for sustainable life and are obligated to conserve the ecosystem. The theories of Global Life, Buddhist Causality, and Systems Thinking have been used for the grounds of the Ecocentrism. But I use them for elaborating and extending the Anthropocentrism. If the Extended Anthropocentrism is fomulated to be a complete system, it actually contributes to conservation of environment and ecosystem.
