摘要:Fritjof Capra introduces a new vision in seeing the reality through the discovery of holistic ecological truth that is linear in nature with the basics of holistic ontology pluralist-spiritualistic-organism and a basis epistemological of synthesis, interactive dialogue, and subject equality. Based on this, Capra explained that the balance between science and technology that is limited by moral values and religion will create ecological sustainability by itself, while the capitalist, materialistic, and hedonism perspective of humanity overrides spiritualism only as a pseudo science. This causes Capra's world view to appear in various fields as the wisdom of nature which is described as the ability of the planet's ecological ecosystems to organizing themselves in complex ways. This is seeing in the perspective of Capra, a science for sustainbale living which explained that science for the sustainability of life no need to create sustainable human society from zero, but can mimic natural ecosystems which are plant communities, animals and microorganisms that are sustainable. This condition explains that when there is a balance between the use of science and technology which is limited by aspects of conscience and religion (Yang) then sustainability automatically occurs. But due to the different perspectives that further increase environmental damage such as climate change, Capra offers the concept of ecoliteracy that guarantees a solid continuation of life together on planet Earth, namely: networks, cycles, solar energy, partnerships, diversity, and balance dynamic. Therefore, Capra offers a solution for solving climate change is eco-literacy which he calls spreading to various fields of science because it will develop into an ecodesign. The groups expected to understand ecoliteration in the face of environmental change (climate change) are politicians, business leaders, professionals at all levels, and educational institutions. This group, according to Capra, is a group of public or institutional policy makers and trusted input providers who have the real ability to create community impacts far ahead.
