An environmental ethic : its formulation and implications / Norman H. Morse with a preface by Pierre Dansereau and a foreword by Donald A. Chant.: En93-2/1975E-PDF

"The Canadian Environmental Advisory Council is convinced that the escalating assault by man on the natural environment arises out of unrealized and unarticulated consequences of the attitudes of western society and the goals which it has accepted without serious question. Our social ethic is pervaded by two notions: a) the dominance of man over the natural world in all its detail; and b) the desirability of perpetual progress by man in altering the world to his pattern in ways limited only by his ingenuity"--Abstract.
