Abstract
The problem of environmental pollution that occurs today cannot be separated from human behavior in dealing with the natural (ecological) environment. In environmental ethics theory, there are three main streams that underlie human ecological behavior, namely human-centered behavior (anthropocentrism), centered on living things (biocentrism) and environment-centered (ecocentrism). Anthropocentrism holds that human interests are the highest in relation to the universe. While biocentrism views humans as part of living things and have interdependence with each other. So nature has value in itself. Meanwhile, ecocentrism places the entire ecological community as the center of ethics. In the view of ecocentrism all living and non-living things are related to each other. By using descriptive qualitative methods through the literature (library) will be explored what arguments underlie each of these streams and their impact on human behavior on the environment. Then see what are the weaknesses of each stream and the efforts that must be made to improve human ecological behavior in the future.
