Abstract

The environmental crisis that hit the global world has threatened the future of the human being and all living in the world. The root of the environmental crisis today that is due because of the "human factors". Human mindset embodied in various forms of exploitation of the natural act of damaging our environment tragically. Understand anthropocentrism is so permeated human thought patterns stimulate human passion to continue to exploit nature without human arbitrarily. Natural objectified and regarded as a place to suck it for the benefit of human. And nature environment needs to be protected by human as moral person. One way to protect nature is not a great design technology, but change the mind set of people from anthropocentric paradigm to eco centrism awareness in order to protect the environment entity. The purpose of this study is to build a construction of ecological thinking to support environmental protection efforts. Using reflection methods especially deconstruction of Derrida, continuously critical of anthropocentrism is a must as one way to protect the environment in theoretical thinking frame. Through this frame of thinking, it can have constructed the concept of ecological awareness for protecting environment and the good condition to the earth and all reality of life. This concept is useful for enriching theoretical thinking to protect the environment.
