For many, environmentalism and green are a way of thinking, a lifestyle associated with the protection of nature. Green ideology implies a concern for the environment for two reasons. Concern over the connection between the fate of the environment and the fate of people. In that sense, concern for the environment is actually a concern for people, but not in the form of material survival, it is an issue that was closed in the most developed countries after the Second World War, but in the form of survival of the environment and people as part of it. At that level, people view the environment instrumentally and show concern about the possible disappearance of forests, not because of the forests themselves but because of the value they have for people. Thinking about the fate of people, their connection with the fate of the environment, inevitably led to feeling sorry for the environment regardless of its relationship with people.
