Abstract

In today's era, environmental ideas occupy very important place in world literary trends. Apart from literature, ecological studies are increasingly carried out in various fields such as sociology, anthropology, physics, and economics.

Many ecological economists have documented the connections between nature and the economy through their theories. Notable among them are Karl Marx, Schumacher, and Lester Brown.
