energy and human ecology  

Définition(s)

  • Ecology is a holistic approach to studying how biological, hydrological, geochemical, and even social processes are shaped by interrelated relations between living beings and ecosystems. The term human ecology is probably most associated with the 1920s Chicago School of Urban Sociologists, who borrowed concepts from plant ecology (e.g., metabolism, competition, succession) to explain the growth and spatial patterns of American cities.
