46. Practical Ecological Questions - [And Accepting the Art of Compromise]

Questions to ask for ecological ethics

Achieving the ideal of ecological ethics is not realistic. The first suggestion is to accept the impossibility. Living ecologically is not a test to pass but a journey to improve. Our goal should not be to fix something but to live in the best way possible.

Once we've accepted that our life and society are rife with compromises, we can begin asking questions to inform the daily decisions for how we will do everything.

Becoming Human

It’s an infinite conversation, really. What does it mean to be alive? How should we live? What is the best, healthiest way to exist and do all of the things that make up life?

There’s a lot to explore.

And even more questions to ask.

But that’s what we are here to do.

I’m Tyler Kleeberger and consider me a curator of these conversations. I am, conveniently, a nerd so I see it as my job to go and discover everything I can about a topic or idea and use any field imaginable — from philosophy to psychology, economics to history, and everything in between — and then share it with you.

I hope you’ll consider going on this journey with me. We’re trying to get smarter and live better. You can find more information at tylerkleeberger.com.

Let’s learn, let’s grow, and let’s become more human.
