Abstract

In this paper we will discuss how philosophy of technology can address and
hopefully help advance a much needed reorientation within design of our relation to nature and earth. There is an ecological crisis, and technology has everything to do with it. Therefore the human application of technology urgently needs to become adjusted to ecology in a more sound way. For this both design approaches and philosophy of technology are in need of more explicit orientation towards nature/earth.
