The ecological crisis today can be seen as a result of modernity which has been developed on the Cartesian dualism of subject/object, and of human being/nature, and thereby has huts objectified and subjugated nature through science and technology New environmental ethics hence should be developed urgently against modernity and to overcome the present ecological crisis. This paper aims to consider some implications for ecology and environmental ethics in the post-structurists'arguments struggling against modernity to formulate new frameworks of discourse and politics, and to examine a possibility to theorize environmental justice on the basis of postmodem ecology. For this purpose, this paper first looks on ecological arguments and implications for environmental ethics in post-structuralism, then tries to gain prominent ecological insights, focusing on ethology and 'rhizomatic naturalism'in the philosophy of Deleuze, and finally interprets both bioregionalism as a theory of 'difference' from postmodern point of view and Deleuze's ecology in terms of symbiosis and difference, in order to conceptualize environmental justice.

현실문제에 고민하는 이들은 사회학이 현실을 이해하는 데 도움을 주길 원한다. 이런 고민은 정보사회에 대한 낙관적 흐름과 생태학적 위험, 경제적 위기에 대한 비관적 흐름에 관심을 갖게 한다.

This study was conducted to elucidate microplastics detection of freshwater ecosystems in Geum river. Samples are collected at 6 points in freshwater, 5 points in fishes. Freshwater was sampled 100 L per each points and fish species were Opsariichthys uncirostris amurensis, Hemibarbus labeo, Pseudogobio esocinus, Zacco platypus, Micropterus salmoides and Cyprinus carpio. FTIR analyis was adopted to identify microplastic types. Extracted microplastics were PES (polyester), PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PVC(Polyvinyl chloride) in freshwater, and PES, PE, PP, PET, PVC in fishes. Our results were expected to be used basic research information for further study in microplastics of freshwater ecosystems.

People say that dichotomous way of thought in the Occident separating human from nature resulted in ecological crisis. Furthermore, it is said that surmounting Occidental way of thought is necessary to heal ecological crisis, and ecological elements in Oriental traditional philosophy could be the alternative for changing anti-ecological disposition inherent in Occidental thought. Although so-called ecology did not exist in Oriental traditional philosophy, there is room for reviewing Oriental traditional philosophy in terms of ecological elements or ecological orientation. In modern society, however, the vitality and significance of ecological elements in Oriental traditional philosophy cannot be conclusively verified. On the other hand, Occidental thought regarded as the main culprit of environmental destruction may not contain anti-ecological contents. Therefore, this study critically reviews the possibility and significance of modern change of ecological thought in Oriental tradition by raising two questions, "Is Occidental view of nature anti-ecological?" and "Is Oriental view of nature ecological?"

This study is a basic study to evaluate the ecological environment of Changwon City. The study site was 6 ecotourism districts in Changwon-si, and the ecotourism index was evaluated through direct visits and interviews with the person in charge through preliminary research and various literature data from June to July 2021. There are six ecotourism indicators: climate crisis, air quality improvement, water conservation, natural coexistence, citizen participation, and tourism resource management. When looking at the scores for the six ecotourism areas in Changwon, it received the highest score in the areas of natural coexistence and air quality improvement. However, the ecoregion received the lowest score in the water resource conservation category, indicating that the water resource conservation as a whole was weak. Next, tourism resource management, climate crisis, and citizen participation are at the same level in all regions. As a result of the evaluation through the low-carbon ecotourism index, the Changwon City low-carbon ecotourism certification system should first be operated as a measure to revitalize the ecotourism region. It is necessary to prepare a low-carbon ecotourism level for Changwon City. Second, it is very important to guide and promote ecotourism areas to revitalize ecotourism areas. Lastly, to operate a sustainable eco-environment area, it is necessary to operate using local governance above all else.

Some of ecological factors and the early life history of endangered freshwater fish, Pseusobagrus brevicorpus, were investigated to proliferate artificially and to restore the population by release seedlings. The density of population in restricted area by small scale dam was 1.25 ind. $m^{-2}$, and the low capacity for reproduction having 200$\sim$250 eggs ind$^{-1}$. were thought to be a reason of this endangered situation. From the result of induction of natural spawning in aquarium after hormone injection it was considered that the spawning substrate would be aquatic plants with slender branches. The hatching was observed after 50 hrs after fertilization and the larvae showed aggressive behavior. Yolk was almost absorbed 3 days after hatching, and the larvae shaped tad-pole grew up to fry after 30 days. We discussed on the strategies for conservation of this species according to those results from investigation on ecology and early life history.

Investigating and evaluating regionally distributed plant resources provide fundamental information (inventory) to conserve plant diversity in target areas. Nevertheless, the examination of inventory to collect information in areas with little interest has been insufficient. In this study, the vicinity of Mt. Baegamsan(1,004m) was investigated for plant resources in the central and southern part of the Korean peninsula, which has received low interest. Nine surveys identified a total of 638 taxa consisting of 108 families, 339 genera, 572 species, 12 subspecies, 49 varieties, and 5 forms. One taxon was designated to be the endangered wild plant by the Ministry of Environment, and a total of 29 taxa were designated to be endemic species in Korea. Floristic target species identified by the surveys included 1 taxon for grade V, 13 taxa for grade IV, 36 taxa for grade III, 29s taxa for grade II, and 34 taxa for grade I. A total of 38 taxa were identified to be naturalized plants, and 3 of them were designated as invasive alien plants by the Ministry of Environment. There was a difference in plant distribution between western and eastern areas of Mt. Baegamsan. The endangered and valuable plants for conservation were mainly identified from Mt. Baegamsan peak area, the ridge, and the western area. Considering the plant distribution, the Mt. Baegamsan region, located on Nakdong-jungmaek, was estimated to be dispersal routes for plant expansion and retreat.

Heute ist das Problem in der globalen Gesellschaft, mit dem wir uns $besch{\ddot{a}}ftigen$ sollen, die ${\ddot{o}}kologische$ Krise. Einer der Wege, um die ${\ddot{o}}kologische$ Krise zu $l{\ddot{o}}sen$, ist das Finden des ${\ddot{o}}kologischen$ Gleichgewichts des Landes und des menschlichen $K{\ddot{o}}rpers$. Dieser Aufsatz behandelt mit dem Begriff von "Salim (Haushalten und Beleben)" die Beziehung des Menschen zum Land, und die Beziehung des Landes zum menschlichen $K{\ddot{o}}rper$. In $Ankn{\ddot{u}}pfung$ an das Konzept der ${\ddot{o}}kologischen$ "Salim" laufen bei diesem Aufsatz $vielf{\ddot{a}}ltige$ Argumente wie die Beziehung des Menschen zum Land als ${\acute{e}}coum{\acute{e}}n$ Ethik, "Salim des Landes" und "Salim des $K{\ddot{o}}rpers$" zusammen. Das ${\ddot{o}}kologische$ Ungleichgewicht im 21. Jahrhundert weist darauf hin, dass die menschliche Beziehung zum Land als einem Platz der menschlichen Besiedlung bis jetzt nicht gesund war. Das Anfordern der ${\acute{e}}coum{\acute{e}}n$ Ethik von heute erweist sich, dass wir herausarbeiten $m{\ddot{u}}ssen$, die gesundliche Beziehung des Menschen zum Land wieder zu beleben. Im Kapitel 3, in $Anschlu{\ss}$ an das Konzept der ${\ddot{o}}kologischen$ "Salim" des Landes, ist die Tatsache in Betracht zu ziehen, dass das Land nicht einfach wirtschaftlichen Wert hat, sondern zur Gemeinschaft des kosmischen Lebens $geh{\ddot{o}}rt$. Mit dem Konzept der ${\ddot{o}}kologischen$ $K{\ddot{o}}rper$-Salim, versucht das Kapitel 4 darzulegen, wie der menschliche $K{\ddot{o}}rper$ im kosmischen Lebenszyklus beteiligt ist. Heute, konfrontiert mit der Amnesie vom Leben des Landes und mit dem $Sch{\ddot{a}}den$ des $K{\ddot{o}}rper-{\ddot{o}}kosystems$, sollten wir unser Bewusstsein und unsere Lebensweise $ver{\ddot{a}}ndern$ und die ${\ddot{o}}kologischen$ Salim-Bewegung in die Praxis setzen.
